Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (3,2) and (-2,-2)

Answer 1

The slope of the line can be find as

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

Lets consider first point (x1,y1) as (3,2)

and second point (x2,y2) as (-2,-2)

now by putting the values in the slope equation

`m = (2--2)/(3--2)`

`m = (4)/(5)`

`m = 0.8`

the slope of the line that passes through the points (3,2) and (-2,-2) is 0.8.
