Question

Find the slope between the two points: (20, 8), (9, 16)

Answer 1

Answer:

$\huge \boxed{ \boxed{ \tt - \frac{8}{11} }}$

Step-by-step explanation:

to understand this

you need to know about:

• linear equation
• slope
• PEMDAS

given:

• points:(20,8),(9,16)

to find:

• slope

tips and formulas:

• $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

let's solve:

let (20,8) and (9,16) be start and end points respectively

according to the question

1. $\sf\frac{8 - 16}{20 - 9}$
2. $\sf substract : \\ \sf \frac{ - 8}{11}$

and we are done

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge - \frac{8}{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1}$

From the question we have

$m = \frac{16 - 8}{9 - 20} = \frac{8}{ - 11} = - \frac{8}{11}$

We have the final answer as

$- \frac{8}{11}$

Hope this helps you
