Question

what is the slope of (-1,2) (0,4)

Answer 1

\[\frac{ y-y1 }{ x-x1 }\]

That's the equation you use to find slope, if I'm not mistaken. So, plug in the correct numbers.

Answer 2

\[slope = \frac{ rise }{ run } = \frac{ y _{2}-y _{1} }{ x _{2}-x _{1} }\]
given the coordinates (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)
so when given (-1 , 2) (0 , 4)
plug and solve

Answer 3

yes i have worked the problem but would like another person to answer to verify its correct.

Answer 4

so what did you get ?

Answer 5

i got 2.

Answer 6

yaay thanks!

Answer 9

how would it have been wrong?

Answer 10

wait what?

Answer 11

yes tell me?

Answer 12

4-2 = 2
0- (-1) = 1
