Question

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-1,8) and (-9,3).

Answer 1

Slope=-5/-8 OR 0.625

Explanation:

y2-y1/x2-x1=3-8/-9-(-1)=-5/-8

OR

8-3/-1-(-9)=5/8=0.625

Both ways get the same decimal. I don't know which one you need to use.

Good luck and hope this helps.

Answer 2

m=-5/8= 0.625 so the slope is 0.625

Explanation:

just graph the points in a calculator or like on your phone or any device
