Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points listed below. (-2, -3), (6,5)

Answer 1

Finding the slope using two points:

The formula for slope is

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

In this case...

$y_{2} =5\\y_{1} =-3\\x_{2} =6\\x_{1} =-2$

^^^Plug these numbers into the formula for slope...

$\frac{5-(-3)}{6 - (-2)}$

$\frac{8}{8}$

1

^^^This is your slope

Hope this helped!
