Question

(-20, -16), (7, 20) Find the slope of the line through each pair of points.

Answer 1

The slope of the line passing through the given points is  $\frac{4}{3}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Two points are (-20, -16) and (7,20)

To find the slope of the line passing through these points.

Formula

The slope of a line passing through the points ($x_{1} ,y_{1}$) and ($x_{2} ,y_{2}$) is $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

Now, Putting $x_{1} =-20, y_{1}=-16, x_{2}=7, y_{2}=20$ we get,

Slope = $\frac{20+16}{7+20}$ = $\frac{36}{27}$ = $\frac{4}{3}$
