Find the slope of the line that contains the points named. G(3, -2), H(7, -2)

Nnesha (nnesha):

do you know the slope formula ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

Nnesha (nnesha):

yes that's right :-) use G and H order pair where \[\large\rm (x_1,y_1)(x_2,y_2)\] replace variables by their values and solve

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahh so it would be (3-7)(-2+2)??

Nnesha (nnesha):

x values should be where at the denominator or numerator ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

denominator

Nnesha (nnesha):

yep right :-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m=-2+2/3+7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m=0?

Nnesha (nnesha):

x_1 = ?? and x_2 =?

Nnesha (nnesha):

yep that's right but remember |dw:1428721093903:dw| suppose to be 7-3 x_2 values comes first and yeah 0 divide something = 0 :-) gO_Od job!
