Do you know how to use this equation to find the slope of a line?\[m=\frac{ y_2-y_1 }{ x_2-x_1 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

great. you want to start by using that equation to get the slopes of the three lines

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0/3 for the first one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got m = (8 - 2) /(-3 - 0) = 6/(-3) = -2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its confusing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you have to enter the points into the equation|dw:1444407766451:dw|
