Question

Find the gradient of the line segment between the points (0,2) and (-2,10).​

Answer 1

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the gradient of the line segment between the points (0,2) and (-2,10).​

Given data

x1= 0

x2= -2

y1= 2

y2=10

The expression for the gradient is given as

M= y2-y1/x2-x1

substitute

M= 10-2/-2-0

M= 8/-2

m= -4

Hence the gradient is -4
