Mehek (mehek14):

do you know the slope formula?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no XD

Mehek (mehek14):

\(\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\)

Mehek (mehek14):

so we plug in the values from the ordered pairs

Mehek (mehek14):

\(\dfrac{-5-(-3)}{3-1}\) subtract that for me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1

Mehek (mehek14):
