Question

Slope of -5 2). (3,9)

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope of the given two points is $m=\frac{7}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two points are (-5,2) and (3,9)

To find the slope with these two points

Let $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ be the given points

By using Slope Formula:

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

$m=\frac{9-2}{3-(-5)}$

$m=\frac{9-2}{3+5}$ ( subtracting and adding the corresponding terms)

$m=\frac{7}{8}$

Therefore slope is $m=\frac{7}{8}$

The slope of the given two points is $m=\frac{7}{8}$
