Question

Find the slope of the pair of points. (-8, -1) (-18, 2)

Answer 1

Answer:

slope= -3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Change in y/Change in x

-1-2/-8--18

-1-2=-3

-8+18=10

=-3/10

Answer 2

Hello!

Step-by-step explanation:

Lesson: Exploring Slope/Slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept form: y=mx+b

m: slope

b: y-intercept.

Rise/run

$\frac{rise}{run}$

Slope formula: $\frac{Y^2-Y^1}{X^2-X^1}$

$m=\frac{2-(-1)=2+1=3}{(-18)-(-8)=(-18)+8=-10}=\frac{3}{-10}=-\frac{3}{10}$

Answer: $\frac{3}{-10}$

Slope is 3.

Y-intercept is -10 or 10.

Hope this helps!
