Question

What is the slope of a line that passes through (–12,15) and (0,4)?

Answer 1

Answer:

$m=-\frac{11}{12}$

Step by step explanation:

We are asked to find the slope of line that passes through (–12,15) and (0,4).

We will use slope formula to find the slope of our given line.

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$, where,

$y_2-y_1$= Change between two y coordinates.

$x_2-x_1$= Change between corresponding x-coordinates of y-coordinates.

Upon substituting coordinates of our given points in slope formula we will get,

$m=\frac{4-15}{0--12}$

$m=\frac{-11}{0+12}$

$m=\frac{-11}{12}$

$m=-\frac{11}{12}$

Therefore, the slope of the line that passes through our given points will be $-\frac{11}{12}$.

Answer 2

M=-11/12
