The slope of the line can be calculated as:

(1-7) / (10-1) = -6 / 9 = -2/3

M (Slope of a line) = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

Plug in the points accordingly.

M = 1 - 7 / 10 - 1
M = -6 / 9
M = -2 / 3 (simplified)

Therefore M = -2/3

What is the slope of the line through the points (–3, 5) and (4, 5)? undefined 0 2 –2

Kazeer [188]

Finding the slope using two points:

The formula for slope is

$\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

In this case you have the points (-3, 5) and (4, 5):

$y_{2} =5\\y_{1} =5\\x_{2} =4\\x_{1} =-3$

^^^Plug these numbers into the formula for slope...

$\frac{5-5}{4 - (-3)}$

$\frac{0}{7}$

^^^This is your slope

G(n-7) if g(x) =x^2-5/3x

Leno4ka [110]

Instead of x, we write n - 7 in the function equation

$g(x)=x^2-\dfrac{5}{3}x\\\\g(n-7)=(n-7)^2-\dfrac{5}{3}(n-7)\\\\\text{use} (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2\\\text{and distributive property}\\\\=n^2-2(n)(7)+7^2+\left(-\dfrac{5}{3}\right)(n)+\left(-\dfrac{5}{3}\right)(-7)\\\\=n^2-14n+49-\dfrac{5}{3}n+\dfrac{35}{3}\\\\\text{combine like terms}\\\\=n^2+\left(-14n-1\dfrac{2}{3}n\right)+\left(49+11\dfrac{2}{3}\right)\\\\=n^2-15\dfrac{2}{3}n+60\dfrac{2}{3}$
