Question

What would be the slope of (1,-2) and (3,0)

Answer 1

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello :)

So to answer this problem, we can use the rise over run formula.

The rise is the difference of any two y values.

The run is the difference of the x values from the same two y values.

This question gives us 1,-2 and 3,0

We can use them for the formula:

-2 - 0 divided by 1 - 3

-2/-2 = 1

Answer 2

Answer:

$m=1$

• Slope Formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (1, -2)

Point (3, 0)

Step 2: Find slope m

1. Substitute [Slope Formula]:                    $m=\frac{0+2}{3-1}$
2. Evaluate Addition/Subtraction:              $m=\frac{2}{2}$
3. Evaluate Division:                                   $m=1$
