Question

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (3, 8) and (-2, 5). 3 3/5 13

Answer 1

For points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)
the slope is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

for (3,8) and (-2,5)
x1=3
y1=8
x2=-2
y2=5

slope=(5-8)/(-2-3)=-3/-5=3/5

answer is 3/5

Answer 2

HI there!

Step-by-step explanation:

$SLOPE=\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\frac{RISE}{RUN}$

$\frac{5-8}{(-2)-3}=\frac{-3}{-5}=\frac{3}{5}$

Slope is 3/5.

Final answer is 3/5.

Hope this helps!

Have  a nice day! :)
