Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through (-25, -8) and (44, 64).

Answer 1

24/23

Explanation:

Answer 2

m = 24/23

Explanation:

To find the slope, use the formula:

`m=\cfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}`

Substitute the data:

`m=\cfrac{64-(-8)}{44-(-25)}`

`m=\cfrac{64+8}{44+25}`

`m=\cfrac{72}{69}`

`m=\cfrac{24}{23}`

∴ m = 24/23
