Question

Find the slope of the line through each pair of points (19,-16), (-7,-25)

Answer 1

9/26

Explanation:

To find the slope of the line passing through the points (19, -16) and (-7, -25), you can use the slope formula:

Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

In this case, (x1, y1) = (19, -16) and (x2, y2) = (-7, -25):

m = (-25 - (-16)) / (-7 - 19)

m = (-25 + 16) / (-7 - 19)

m = (-9) / (-26)

Now, simplify:

m = 9 / 26

So, the slope of the line passing through these two points is 9/26.
