nnesha · Answer

do you know the formula to find slope ?

anonymous · Answer

I am not sure because it's not giving no formula

nnesha · Answer

$$\huge\rm \frac{ y_2 -y_1 }{ x_2 -x_1 }$$
formula to find slope now plug x's and y's into the formula 
(x_1 , y_1 )(x_2 ,y_2)

anonymous · Answer

the second one

nnesha · Answer

i just want to ask one question 
what did you substitute for y_2  ?
y_2 is what in the order pair ?

anonymous · Answer

I made a educated guess

texaschic101 · Answer

you got it.....-14

nnesha · Answer

slope = difference of y's  over difference of x's 
so subtract y  and x values

nnesha · Answer

luckily  but i'm pretty sure this type of question will be in pre-cal

nnesha · Answer

so educated guess isn't a good option.

texaschic101 · Answer

true ^^ you should not have to guess....you know the formula...just plug in your points
