Ik how to do it! I just never get the right answer!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well then i guess i dont how to do t

OpenStudy (raden):

(x1,y1) = (3,1) -----> x1=3 and y1=1 (x2,y2) = (-2,5) -----> x2 = -2 and y2 = 5 u just put of them to formula above

OpenStudy (raden):

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (5-1)/(-2-3) = ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):
