Question

Find the slope of the line through each pair of points.

1) ( 2, 8 ) , ( -20, 7 )
A) 1/22
B) 22
C) - 1/22
D) - 22

Answer 1

Hi!

Explanation:

`SLOPE=(Y_2-Y_1)/(X_2-X_1)=(RISE)/(RUN)`

`(7-8=-1)/((-20)-2=-22)=(-1)/(-22)=(-1/1)/(-22/1)=(-1)/(22)`

Slope is -1/22

Answer is -1/22

I hope this helps you!

Have a nice day! :)
