Question

Find the slope number 11

Answer 1

to get the slope of any straight line, we simply need two points off of it, let's use those two in the picture below.

`(\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{3}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{\textit{\large rise}} {\stackrel{y_2}{3}-\stackrel{y1}{(-5)}}}{\underset{\textit{\large run}} {\underset{x_2}{4}-\underset{x_1}{(-2)}}} \implies \cfrac{3 +5}{4 +2} \implies \cfrac{ 8 }{ 6 } \implies \cfrac{4 }{ 3 }`
