Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (-2,2) and (13,-7)

Answer 1

Slope: $\frac{-7-2}{13+2}$

-7 - 2 = -9

13 + 2 = 15

Slope = $-\frac{9}{15}$

Answer 2

Slope is change in y over change in x.
So in this case, it would be 2- -7/-2-13 = 9/-15 = -3/5.

The answer is -3/5.
