Question

What is the slope of the line through (-4.2) and (3,-3)?​

Answer 1

Answer:

$-\frac{5}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula:

 

     ↓

$\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}$

$\frac{(-3)-2}{3-(-4)}=\frac{-5}{7}=-\frac{5}{7}$

-5/7 is the correct answer.

Answer 2

Finding the slope using the two points:

The formula for slope is

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

In this case...

$y_{2} =-3\\y_{1} =2\\x_{2} =3\\x_{1} =-4$

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

$\frac{-3-2}{3 - (-4)}$

$\frac{-5}{7}$

^^^This is your slope
