Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

As an example

(x₁, y₁ ) = (1,2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5,3), then

d = \sqrt{(5-1)^2+(3-2)^2} = \sqrt{4^2+1^2} = \sqrt{16+1} = \sqrt{17}

Now let (x₁, y₁ ) = (5,3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1,2), then

d = \sqrt{(1-5)^2+(2-3)^2} = \sqrt{(-4)^2+(-1)^2} = \sqrt{16+1} = \sqrt{17}

PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

-7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a line, you need to find the \frac{rise}{run} between two points. I will be using the points (-3, 5) and (7, -2).

\frac{rise}{run} = \frac{-2-5}{7-(-3)}

     = \frac{-7}{10}

     = -7/10
