Question

Can someone help me?
Choose the correct slope of the line that passes through the points (1, −3) and (3, −5).
-1
1
0
1/2

Answer 1

You may apply the slope formula \[ m = \frac{ y_{2}-y _{1} }{ x _{2}-x _{1} } \]

Answer 2

\[(x_1,y_1)~~~\text{and}~~~(x_2,y_2)\] are your points

Answer 3

@Astrophysics \[-5--3/3-1 \]

Answer 4

Good start.

Answer 5

That's all I know how to do @pooja195 I haven't done this since 8th grade lol.

Answer 6

Ok when you have 2 negative signs together they become a positive sign.So we would ADD.
-5+3=?

Answer 7

-2 @pooja195

Answer 8

Good :)
3-1=?

Answer 9

2 @pooja195

Answer 10

Good :)
Slopes can be simplified so in this case divide:
-2/2=?

Answer 11

*Fractions

Answer 12

0? @pooja195

Answer 13

:)

Answer 14

Nope we are dividing

Answer 15

\[\frac{ -2 }{ 2 }\]

Answer 16

ohh -1 @pooja195

Answer 17

Correct! :D

Answer 18

Nice!!!
Very Nice!

Answer 19

May I ask you a few more @pooja195

Answer 20

Go for it

Answer 21

Given the equation y − 4 = three fourths(x + 8) in point-slope form, identify the equation of the same line in standard form.
-3/4x+y=10
3x-4y=-40
y=3/4x+12
y=3/4xx+10

Answer 22

Choose the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (−1, 6) and has a slope of −3.
y-6=-3x-3
y-6=-3(x+1)
y=-3x+3
3x+y=3
@pooja195

Answer 23

can you post one at a time i dont do well with standered form hopefully @Astrophysics can help with that one

Answer 24

Sorry. I haven't done any of this in about 4 years lol

Answer 25

\[y-4=\frac{ 3 }{ 4 }(x+8)\]

Answer 26

They want it in standard form eh, that's \[Ax+By=C\] in this case anyways, a little algebra

Answer 27

Um how would I go about the fraction? @Astrophysics

Answer 28

can you finish it off
