To find the slope of a line that goes through given points with known coordinates, you divide the subtraction of the y of the second point minus the y of the first point, by the subtraction of the x of the second point minus the x of the first point:
m = (yB-yA) / (xB-xA)

Let A(8,5) and B(6,7).
With yB = 7; yA = 5; xB = 6; xA = 8
m = (7-5) / (6-8)
m = 2/-2
m = -1

So the slope of the line that goes through the given points (8,5) and (6,7) is m = -1.

I've added a pic of the line with both points under the answer.

Hope this Helps! :)

Can you please help me on this question 8(4-x)=7x+2
kati45 [8]

Answer:

2=x

Step-by-step explanation:

8(4-x)=7x+2

Distribute

32 - 8x = 7x+2

Add 8x to each side

32 - 8x+8x = 7x+8x+2

32 = 15x+2

Subtract 2 from each side

32-2 = 15x+2-2

30 = 15x

Divide each side by 15

30/15 = 15x/15

2 =x
