Answer:
-7/6
Step-by-step explanation:
I have plotted 8,10 and 2,17 on a grid and connected them with a line to help visualize the slope of the line we are trying to find.
The answer can also be written as a decimal as shown below, but it is neater to use the fraction.
Green 5/15
red 2/15
that should be your answer
As a decimal 4/15 = 0.2666667
As a decimal 3/10 = 0.3 [talk about close]
3/10 is bigger.
You could take an average to find something between 4/15 and 3/10
1/2(4/15 + 2/10)
1/2(8/30 + 6/30)
1/2(14/30)
1/2(7/15)
7/30 is between the two given numbers..
