Question

Use the slope formula to find the missing coordinate. m = -7/2 , T(13, 2), W(_, -5)

A. -11
B. 11
C. 15

Answer 1

The answer is C-15

Answer 2

Option C.
`15`

Explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

`m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)`

we have

`T(13,2)\ W(x2,-5)`

`m=-(7)/(2)`

Substitute the values and solve for x2

`-(7)/(2)=(-5-2)/(x2-13)`

`-(7)/(2)=(-7)/(x2-13)`

equate the denominators

`x2-13=2\\x2=2+13\\ x2=15`
