Answer 1

@nyprincess2001

Would you rewrite these for easier reading, please?

By that, I mean, write:

"negative three comma four and negative two comma one"

as

(-3,4) and (-2,1).

Thanks.

Answer 2

(-3,4), (-2,1) A.) -3
(3,-4), (2,1) B.) -1
(-3,4), (2,1) C.) -3/5
(3,-4), (-2,1) D.) -5

Answer 3

Let's get the rise over run (slope) of the first pair of points: (-3,4), (-2,1)

Rise is the difference of the y coordinates. (4 - 1) = 3
Run is the difference of the x coordinates. (-3 -(-2)) = (-3 + 2) = -1

For the points (-3,4), (-2,1) the rise over run is 3/(-1) = -3.

Where does that match? @nyprincess2001

Answer 4

@nyprincess2001 I'm waiting for your reply. Be brave; if what you write is wrong, you can always delete it.

Answer 5

i THINK IT IS... A or B

Answer 6

From the work I did above (check it for accuracy) this happened:

For the points (-3,4), (-2,1) the rise over run is 3/(-1) = -3.

So that option is A.) -3

Okay, @nyprincess2001 it is your turn to get the rise over run for the next pair of points:

(3,-4), (2,1) ---> Yours
