Using the slope formula for the points (1, 5) and (2, -2), what would the denominator be? -2 - 5 -2 - 1 2 - 1 2 - 5

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

Why would there be a 5 or a -2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk @tkhunny

You probably do. It wouldn't! The denominator is the change in the x values. Take a good look at "2-1".
