Question

I need help with this math jeopardy

(y2−y1) divided by (x2−x1)
A. What is the distance formula?
B. What is the midpoint formula?
C. What is the Pythagorean Theorem?
D. What is the slope formula?

Answer 1

The correct answer is D: the slope formula

y2-y1 divided by x2-x1 represents slope because slope represents the change in y divided by the change in x

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

(y2-y1) divided by (x2-x1) is the formula to find the slope of two coordinates.

Distance formula: look at attached image because it is hard to understand in words ;)

Midpoint formula: (x1+x2) divided by 2, (y1-y2) divided by two - look at attached image

Pythagorean Theorem: a squared plus b squared = c squared - look at attached image

Slope Formula: y=mx+b
