First point = (x1, y1) = (-1, 8)

Second point = (x2, y2) = (5, -4)

m = slope

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) .... is the slope formula

m = (-4 - 8)/(5 - (-1)) .... plug in the given values

m = (-4 - 8)/(5 + 1)

m = -12/6

<h3>m = -2</h3><h3>The slope is -2</h3><h3>Answer: Choice C</h3>

Find the gradients of line a and b
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Gradient of A: 2

Gradient of B: -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Gradient = change in y/change in x

✔️Gradient of A using two points on line A, (2, 5) and (0, 1):

Gradient = (1 - 5)/(0 - 2) = -4/-2

Simplify

Gradient of A = 2

✔️Gradient of B using two points on line B, (0, 5) and (5, 0):

Gradient = (0 - 5)/(5 - 0) = -5/5

Simplify

Gradient of B = -1
