To find the slope, use the slope(m) formula:
and plug in the two points
(0, 5) = (x₁, y₁)
(-9, -4) = (x₂, y₂)
[two negatives cancel each other out and become positive]
m = 1 The slope is 1

We want to find the mean of two elements in a set, given that we know the other elements of the set and the mean of the whole set.
The answer is: -490
-----------------------------
For a set with N elements {x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ} the mean is given by:
Here we know that:
- The mean of the set is 0.
- The set has 1000 elements.
- 998 of these elements are ones, the other two are A and B.
We want to find the mean of the values of A and B.
First, we can start by writing the equation for the mean:
We can rewrite this as:
And we have 998 ones, then:
Now we have B isolated.
With this, the mean of A and B can be written as:
So we can conclude that the mean of the other two numbers is -490.
