Question

Slope of (-2,-3) and (6,2)

Answer 1

`(5)/(8)` is the slope between these two points.

To figure out the slope between two points, we need to find the rise over run, which is the change in the y value over the change in the x value. This becomes:


`(2 - (-3))/(6 - (-2))`

And simplifies to:

`(5)/(8)`, meaning that the slope between these two points is
`(5)/(8)`.
