ill fan & medal :) Choose the correct slope of the line that passes through the points (1, −3) and (3, −5). −1 1 0 one half
\[\huge\bf \frac{ y_2 - y_1 }{ x_2 -x_1}\] formula to find slope x and y values are \[\large\rm (x_1 ,y_1) (x_2 ,y_2)\]
-5 - 3 -3 - 1 (1,3) (-3,-5)
\[\huge\bf \frac{ -5+3 }{ 3 -1}\]
Can you solve :) and have it in fraction form?
-2/2
good :) whats -2 divided by 2 ?
-1
Good so our slope is...?
-1 ?
Actually lets leave it -2/2 i dont think we can simplfy a slope
So our slope is -2/2
thank you but also the answer choice can be -1
What are the answer choices?
-1 1 0 1/2
ok yea they want the simplfied form therefore -1 (what we came up with) is correct :) so i guess slopes can be simplifed :)
:) thank you so much
No problem :D \(~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\Huge{\color{red}{\heartsuit}\color{orange}{\bigstar}\color{yellow}{\heartsuit}\color{green}{\bigstar}\color{blue}{\heartsuit}\color{purple}{\bigstar}\color{hotpink}{\heartsuit}}\)\(\Huge\bf\color{#FF0000}W\color{#FF4900}e\color{#FF9200}l\color{#FFDB00}c\color{#FFff00}o\color{#B6ff00}m\color{#6Dff00}e\color{#24ff00}~\color{#00ff00}t\color{#00ff49}o\color{#00ff92}~\color{#00ffDB}O\color{#00ffff}p\color{#00DBff}e\color{#0092ff}n\color{#0049ff}S\color{#0000ff}t\color{#2400ff}u\color{#6D00ff}d\color{#B600ff}y\color{#FF00ff}!\)\(~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\Huge{\color{red}{\heartsuit}\color{orange}{\bigstar}\color{yellow}{\heartsuit}\color{green}{\bigstar}\color{blue}{\heartsuit}\color{purple}{\bigstar}\color{hotpink}{\heartsuit}}\)\(\Large\bf\color{Lime}{Please,\ don't\ hesitate\ to\ ask\ questions!}\)\(\Large\bf\color{magenta}{We're\ here\ to\ help!}\Large\color{magenta}{\ddot\smile}\)
