Question

A line that contains the points (5, −3) and (7, 3) has a slope, m, that equals

Answer 1

Answer:

m = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (5, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (7, 3)

m = $\frac{3+3}{7-5}$ = $\frac{6}{2}$ = 3
