Question

1) Find the slope.2) write an equationPLEASE I NEED HELP AND SHOW YOUR WORK

Answer 1

$\text{slope}=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

p1= (-2,-5) p2=(2,5)

$\begin{gathered} \text{slope}=\frac{5-(-5)}{2-(-2)} \\ \text{slope}=\frac{5+5}{2+2} \\ \text{slope}=\frac{10}{4} \\ \text{slope}=\frac{5}{2} \end{gathered}$

2)

$\begin{gathered} y-(-5)=\frac{5}{2}(x-(-2)) \\ y+5=\frac{5}{2}x+5 \\ y=\frac{5}{2}x \end{gathered}$
