Question

What is the slope of the line through (-2, 5) and (4, 9)?


slope =2/3
slope =3/2
slope = 2

Answer 1

Is there a formula for slope that they give you?

Answer 2

You can use y-y over x-x

Answer 3

It would look like this:
(9-5)/(4-(-2))

Answer 4

\[(y^2-y^1)/(x^2-x^1)\]

Answer 5

careful @axelneel, the way you type it out makes it seem as if there are exponents. The 2 and 1 should be subscripts.

Answer 6

slope of any line,,,when two coordinates,,lying on the line are given,,,can be solved by dividing (difernce in y co-ordinate) and (difference in x-co-ordinates)
