Question

Find the slope of line passing through the two points, (3, -4) and (1, 2).

Answer 1

Answer:

m = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope is $m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

So use the x's and y's from the given points to solve for m

(3, -4) (1, 2)

$m=\frac{2-(-4)}{1-3}$

$m= \frac{6}{-2}$

$m=-3$
