Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-2, -3) and (5,4) ? -3 3 -1 1

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{\textsf{ The slope of the line is \textbf{1}.}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Two points are given to us and we need to find the slope of the line that passes through these two points . The two points are (-2,-3) and (5,4) .As we know that the slope of the line is given by $\tan\theta$

Slope of a line is :-

$\boxed{\boxed{ \sf Slope =\dfrac{ y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\tan\theta }}$

On using this formula we can find the slope of the line .

Putting the respective values :-

$\sf\implies Slope = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\sf\implies Slope = \dfrac{ -3-4}{-2-5} \\\\\sf\implies Slope =\dfrac{-7}{-7}\\\\\sf\implies\boxed{\pink{\sf Slope = 1 }}$
