Here's an example...
So, in our last example...
In the point ( -2, -1 ), x1 = -2 and y1 = -1 ... and, in the point ( 4, 3 ), x2 = 3 and y2 = 3
m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 ) = ( 3 - ( -1 ) ) / ( 4 - ( -2 ) ) = 4 / 6 = 2 / 3
But, notice something cool...
The order of the points doesn't matter! Let's switch them and see what we get:
In the point ( 4, 3 ), x1 = 4 and y1 = 3 ... and, in the point ( -2, -1 ), x2 = -2 and y2 = -1
m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 ) = ( -1 - 3 ) / ( -2 - 4 ) = -4 / -6 = 2 / 3 ... Same thing!
Let's try our new formula with the second example in the last lesson:
It was a line passing through
( -1, 4 ) and ( 2, -2 )
m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 ) = ( -2 - 4 ) / ( 2 - ( -1 ) ) = -6 / 3 = -2
Answer:
below
Step-by-step explanation:
three cards angles are greater than 100°
total cards = 8
probability = 3/8
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is 1/4 since y increases 1 when x increases by 4 (you divide deltaY by deltaX).
Then, to make it go through (0,-4) you subtract -4.
Answer:
5100m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's do some subtraction!
8500-3400= 5100m
Answer:
276
Step-by-step explanation:
5/12+1/3=5/12+4/12=9/12
12/12-9/12= 3/12
3/12=69
1/12=23
23 times 12 is 276
