you know the formula for slope right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no. no clue at all
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
\[m=\frac{ y2-y1 }{ x2-x1 }\]
so you have your points (-3,-5) and (10,13)
lets name the points
y1= 13
x1= 10
y2= -5
x2= -3
insert the points into your equation and solve...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but dont divide... but you can simplify it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh... wow. okay! I don't have a calculator so anyone know an online one?

lol ok well did you get an answer?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no im confused:(
OpenStudy (anonymous):
again
OpenStudy (anonymous):
:(
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so i gave you the equation already...
ill change up the order of points
y2= 13
x2= 10
y1= -5
x1= -3
insert the numbers into the equation...
\[m= \frac{ 13- \left( -5 \right)}{ 10- \left( -3 \right) }\]
solve-ish...
\[m= \frac{ 18 }{ 13 }\]
the number above ^ is your slope... 18 being the rise and 13 being the run...

imblonde!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oy vey...
so pretty much use the formula for slope to solve... insert corresponding parts of the points to matching label in the formula... solve from there... leave in fraction form and simplify if possible...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
got it now?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no=.= i suck at this! ich bin sehr traurig!
