Nnesha (nnesha):

do you know the slope formula ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

Nnesha (nnesha):

ok so slope is \[\frac{ y _{2} - y _{1} }{ x _{2} - x _{1}} \]

Nnesha (nnesha):

they gave you two order pair where you have x and y values |dw:1418185214484:dw| now plug that into the formula and please let me know what u get
