Question

(2,n) and (0,8) Slope is -2 what is n?​

Answer 1

• n = 4

-------------------

Use slope equation:

• m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁), where m - slope, (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are points

Substitute coordinates and solve for n:

• - 2 = (8 - n)/(0 - 2)
• - 2 = (8 - n)/ (-2)
• 8 - n = (-2)*(-2)
• 8 - n = 4
• n = 8 - 4
• n = 4
