Question

(-5,-8)(1,10) what is the slope

Answer 1

Hi there!

Explanation:

Lesson: Slope/ Slope-intercept form

`SLOPE=(Y^2-Y^1)/(X^2-X^1)=(RISE)/(RUN)`

`(10-(-8)=10+8=18)/(1-(-5)=1+5=6)=(18)/(6)=3`

Therefore, the slope is 3.

Answer is 3.

*The answer must have a positive sign.*

I hope this helps you!

Have a nice day! :)

Answer 2

3 is the slope of these lines

Explanation:

to find the slope you need to subtract the y values , then subtract the x values, and then finally divide

(-5,-8) (1,10)

(10-(-8)) / (1-(-5))

(10+8) / (1+5)

18/6
