Question

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (2, 5) and (-1, -4)? show your work

Answer 1

Answer:

m = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use slope formula

m = $\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

-4-5/-1-2 = 3

Answer 2

Answer:

We can solve this question using the slope equation which is y2-y1/x2-x1

If you use that formula and sub in the coordinates

-4 - 5 / -1-2

-9/-3

= 3

The slope should be 3/1
