ALGEBRA 2
4. What is the slope of the line that passes throughout the given points?
(3,2) and (5,12)
5
-5
-1/5
1/5

Answer 1

\[\huge~\rm~\frac{ y_2-y_1 }{ x_2-x_1 }=slope\]

Answer 2

2-12
3-5

Answer 3

No

Answer 4

lol yes!

Answer 5

@misty1212 12-2

Answer 6

\[\huge \frac{2-12}{3-5}\] for sure

Answer 7

@pooja195 as long as you keep the order the same, it doesn't matter

Answer 8

-10/2
-5

Answer 9

3-5 is not 2

Answer 10

god does not tell you which one is \((x_1,y_1)\) and \((x_2,y_2)\) you get to pick that for yourself

Answer 11

@misty1212 ok i get it.

Answer 12

my answer is -5

Answer 13

thats not right
-10/-2=?

Answer 14

3-5=-2 NOT 2

Answer 15

(x1,y1) = (3,2)
(x2,y2) = (5,12)
-------------------------------------------------------
\[\Large m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\]
\[\Large m = \frac{12 - 2}{5-3}\]
\[\Large m = \frac{10}{2}\]
\[\Large m = 5\]
-------------------------------------------------------
\[\Large m = \frac{y_{1}-y_{2}}{x_{1}-x_{2}}\]
\[\Large m = \frac{2-12}{3-5}\]
\[\Large m = \frac{-10}{-2}\]
\[\Large m = 5\]
-------------------------------------------------------
Either way, you get the same slope.
