Let's put it into the slope formula:

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

5-(-13)/ 8-(-4)

Correct signs. (two negatives equal a positive)

5+13/ 8+4

18/12

Simplify.

9/6

3/2 or 1.5.

I hope this helps!

We can use y2-y1/x2-x1 to find the slope. Therefore, we have:
-5-(-13)/8-(-4). That gives us -5+13/8+4, or 8/12 = 2/3.
Hope this helps!

Is (1, 2) a solution to the inequality 6x - y> 3?

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer we will put it into the equation, since x = 1 and y = 2 we will write it like this, 6(1) - 2 > 3. Since 6 x 1 = 6, we will now subtract 6 from 2 which equals 4. Therefore, the equation is correct because 4 is bigger than 3.
