Question

What's the slope of (6, 5) and (3, 7.5) ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope of (6, 5) and (3, 7.5) is 5/-6.

As a decimal: (-0.83333333333...)

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for slope:

$m=\frac{y^2-y^1}{x^2-x^1}$

('m' means slope.)

$(x^1,y^1) =$ coordinates of the first coordinate point

$(x^2,y^2)=$ coordinates of the second coordinate point.

--------------------------

Coordinates:

$(6,5)(3,7.5)$

-------------------------

Now, I will simply plug the numbers into the formula.

$m=\frac{7.5-5}{3-6} =\frac{2.5}{-3} =5/-6$

As a decimal: (-0.83333333333...)
