Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points (4,5) (10,0)

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope of the line passes through the pair of points (4,5) (10,0) is -5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a line, we will use below formula:

$slope=(y_{2}-y_{1})/(x_{2}-x_{1})$

Then for the two points (4,5) and (10,0) the formula becomes:

$slope=(0-5)/(10-4)=-5/6$

Answer 2

Slope = difference in y / difference in x
slope = 5 - 0 / 4 - 10
slope = 5 / -6
slope = -.83333
