Question

Determine the slope of the line that passes through each pair of points. TEKS 8.4(B)

Answer 1

Slope of EF = 5/2

Slope of XY=4/3

Further explanation:

"Slope is the steepness of a line"

The formula for slope when two lines are given:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Now,

1. E(2-1) and F(4,4)

$m=\frac{4-(-1)}{4-2}\\ =\frac{4+1}{2}\\ =\frac{5}{2}$

2. X(1, 4) and Y(-2,0)​

$m=\frac{0-4}{-2-1}\\ =\frac{-4}{-3}\\ =\frac{4}{3}$

Hence,

Slope of EF = 5/2

Slope of XY=4/3
