Question

Can anyone help me with this one? I'm not quite sure of it but I think that its A...

Choose the correct slope of the line that passes through the points (1, -3) and (3, -5).

A: -1
B: 1
C: 0
D: 1/2

Answer 1

Yes. it would be A

Answer 2

Thanks again.. I just wanted to make sure before I submit this assignment...

Answer 3

Correct,

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-5-(-3))/(3-1)

m = (-5+3)/(3-1)

m = -1

Answer 4

I got another one if you could help me with it... its my last one and I cant quite seem to be able to wrap my mind around it...

Choose the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the points (-3, 2) and (2, 1).

A: y + 3 = -5(x - 2)
B: y - 2 = -5(x + 3)
C: y + 3 = -one fifth(x - 2)
D: y - 2 = -one fifth(x + 3)

Answer 5

what's the slope

Answer 6

No slope is listed

Answer 7

you have to find it first

Answer 8

But I believe it would be 3 and 1/2...

Answer 9

with a y-intercept of 21... Does that sound Correct?

Answer 10

the slope isn't 3 1/2

Answer 11

Oh snap I was looking at the wrong problem... The slope of this one should be -1/5 correct?

Answer 12

use the slope formula

Answer 13

use slope forumla

Answer 14

I think the answer is D but Im not sure right now...

Answer 15

No its A

Answer 16

A? how so?

Answer 17
