Question

Line CH contains points (-2, 6) and H(5, -3) What is the slope of G?

Answer 1

The slope of line G is
`(- 9)/(7)` .

Explanation:

Given as :

The points of the line CH contains

C =
`x_1` ,
`y_1` = - 2 , 6

H =
`x_2` ,
`y_2` = 5 , -3

Let The slop of line CH = G

Now, slope of line is

G =
`(y_2 - y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

i.e G =
`(- 3 - 6)/(5 -(-2))`

Or, G =
`(- 9)/(5 +2)`

Or,G =
`(- 9)/(7)`

So, The slope of the line CH = G =
`(- 9)/(7)`

Hence, The slope of line G is
`(- 9)/(7)` . Answer
