Question

Find the slope of the line through (-9,-10) and (-2,-5)

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 9, - 10) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 2, - 5)

m = $\frac{-5+10}{-2+9}$ = $\frac{5}{7}$ → C

Answer 2

Answer:

C. 5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

y1= -10 y2= -5

x1= -9 x2= -2

The formula is y2-y1/x2-x1

-5-(-10)/-2-(-9)= 5/7
