Question

(7,349) (2,114) slope

Answer 1

Answer: m=47

Explanation:

`\displaystyle\\The \ slope\ m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Given: (7,349) (2,114) Find: m

x₁=7 x₂=2 y₁=349 y₂=114

`\displaystyle\\m=(114-349)/(2-7) \\\\\\m=(-235)/(-5) \\\\\\m=47`

Answer 2

Slope = 47

Explanation:

Slope:

Substitute the x and y coordinates in the formula and find the slope.

(7 , 349 ) ; x₁ = 7 ; y₁ = 349

(2 , 114) ; x₂ = 2 ; y₂ = 114

`\sf \boxed{Slope=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)}`

`\sf = (114-349)/(2-7)\\\\=(-235)/(-5)\\\\=47`
