Question

What is the slope of the line through (- 7 8 and 0 4?; What is the slope of the line that passes through the points − 1 − 7 − 1 − 7 and − 2 − 5 − 2 − 5 )? Write your answer in simplest form?; What is the slope of a line that passes through points 5'4 and 7/10 )?; Which is the slope of the line that passes through the points 3/5 and 8 7 )?

Answer 1

The slopes of the given 4 sets of points are -11/8, -2, 6, and 2/5

we know that the slope of a line is calculated by

(y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

where x₁, x₂, y₁, and y₂ are any 2 given coordinates of a line.

The first set of points are (-7, 8) and (0,4)

Hence slope will be

(4 + 7)/(0-8)

-11/8

It is given that the points are (-1, -7) and (-2, -5)

Hence the slope will be

(-5 + 7)/(-2 + 1)

= 2/-1

= -2

We are also given points (5,4) and (7,10). Hence slope will be

(10 - 4) / (5 - 4)

= 6

The other set points are

(8,7) and (3,5)

Their slope will be

(7 - 5) / (8 - 3)

= 2/5

Hence the slopes are -11/8, -2, 6 and 2/5
