Question

Find the slope of the line (-3,-2) (1,6)

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, - 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 6)

m = $\frac{6-(-2)}{1-(-3)}$ = $\frac{6+2}{1+3}$ = $\frac{8}{4}$ = 2
