Question

What is the slope of (15,-51) and (-29,-45)

Answer 1

Gradient/slope: y2-y1/x2-x1

y1= -51

y2= -45

x1= 15

x2= -29

Slope:

-45-(-51)/-29-15

= -45+51/-44

= -6/44

divide both by 2

= -3/22

Answer 2

slope = (-3/22)

Explanation:

(15, -51), (-29, -45)

(x₁, y₁) (x₂, y₂)

y₂ - y₁ -45 - (-51) -45 + 51 6 ÷ 2 -3

m = ------------ = ----------------- = -------------- = ------------ = --------

x₂ - x₁ -29 - 15 -44 -44 ÷ 2 22

I hope this helps!
