Question

Find the slope between (3, 2) and (-2, 3)

Answer 1

For this case we have that by definition, the slope of a line is given by:

`m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}`

We have the following points:

`(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) :( 3,2)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (- 2,3)`

Substituting we have:

`m = \frac {3-2} {- 2-3} = \frac {1} {- 5} = - \frac {1} {5}`

Finally, the slope is:

`m = - \frac {1} {5}`

Answer:

`m = - \frac {1} {5}`
