Question

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (2, 5) and (0, −4)

Answer 1

here we have to apply this formula:
\[m = \frac{{{y_2} - {y_1}}}{{{x_2} - {x_1}}} = \frac{{ - 4 - 5}}{{0 - 2}} = ...?\]

Answer 2

-9/-2?

Answer 3

being \((x_1,y_1)=(2,5)\) and \((x_2,y_2)=(0,-4)\)

Answer 4

yes! correct
the requested slope, is \(m=9/2\)

Answer 5

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (1, –5) and (4, 1)?

A. 2


B.-4/5


C.5/4


D. -2

Answer 6

here, again we have to apply the same formula above, so we have this:
\[m = \frac{{{y_2} - {y_1}}}{{{x_2} - {x_1}}} = \frac{{1 - \left( { - 5} \right)}}{{4 - 1}} = ...?\]

Answer 7

6/3

Answer 8

correct! \(m=2\)

Answer 9
