Question

NEED ASAP ---- 25 POINTS---NO LINKS What is the slope of the line in both of the graphs?

Answer 1

Answer:

-10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the slope, defined by m, using the equation

$m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

First, we must choose points. I will choose (2, 165) as point 1 and (1, 175) as point two, so:

x1= 1

y1= 165

x2= 2

y2= 175

Now, let's plug it in.

$m = \frac{175 - 165}{1 - 2} = \frac{10}{ - 1} = - 10$

For the next one, we follow the same process.

Point 1: (3, 165)

Point 2: (2, 175)

$m = \frac{175 - 165}{2 - 3} = \frac{10}{ - 1} = - 10$
