Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through (-2,-3) and (1,1).

Answer 1

slope formula : (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(-2,-3)...x1 = -2 and y1 = -3
(1,1)...x2 = 1 and y2 = 1
time to sub and solve
slope = (1 - (-2) / (1 - (-3) = (1 + 2) / (1 + 3) = 3/4 <==

Answer 2

Answer: 4/3

Explanation:

(-2,-3) x'= -2 y'= -3

(1,1) x"=1 y"=1

slope. (x'-x")= y'-y"

slope. (-2-1)=-3-1

slope. -3 = -4

slope = 4/3
