Question

What is the slope of a line passing through (-3, -4) and (3, 4)?

Answer 1

Answer:

1 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}}$ to find slope.

Plug in the numbers:

$m=\frac{4-(-4)}{3-(-3)}$

Solve for the numerator and the denominator:

$m=\frac{8}{6}$

Simplify:

4/3

Slope is 1 1/3 or 1.333
