Question

Slope of (-1,-4) and (-4,-14)

Answer 1

Answer: $m = \frac{10}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is calculated by the formula "

$m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

$x_{1}$ = -1

$x_{2}$ = -4

$y_{1}$ = -4

$y_{2}$ = -14

Substituting into the formula , we have :

$m = \frac{-14-(-4)}{-4-(-1)}$

$m = \frac{-14+4}{-4+1}$

$m = \frac{-10}{-3}$

$m = \frac{10}{3}$
