Question

Find the slope of the line that contains (-2,-2) and (-10,-9)

Answer 1

7/8

Explanation:

Answer 2

`\huge (7)/(8) \\`

Explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

`m = ( y_2 - y _ 1)/(x_ 2 - x_ 1) \\`

From the question we have

`m = ( - 9 - - 2)/( - 10 - - 2) = ( - 9 + 2)/( - 10 + 2) = ( - 7)/( - 8) = (7)/(8) \\`

We have the final answer as

`(7)/(8) \\`

Hope this helps you
