2 wrt the abscissa.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks but can you tell me how you got that himan?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/2 wrt ordinate.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The idea is that if you have a point a,b and another c,d the slope is -(d-b)/(c-a) wrt abscissa

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you go up 2 from (-1,-5) and then go right to the next point

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here is a useful formula for finding the slope: \[m = \frac{ y_{2} - y_{1} }{ x_{2} - x_{1} }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m - is the slope. \[y_{2}, y_{1}, x_{2}, x_{1}\] - coordinates
