Question

Find the slope of a line given the following points

Answer 1

m = -6 / 5

Explanation:

If you are given 2 points (x1, y1) and (x2,y2)

the slope is simply

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

m = (-2 - 4) / [3 - (-2)]

m = -6 / 5

Answer 2

-6/5

Explanation:

Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Plug in

Slope = (4 + 2)/(-2 - 3)

Slope = -6/5
