Question

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (-3,4) and (4,-1)

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = - $\frac{5}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 1)

m = $\frac{-1-4}{4+3}$ = - $\frac{5}{7}$
