Question

Give the slope between the points
(2,5) (14,-4)

Answer 1

Rewritten in slope-intercept form

y = mx + b

The answer is

m = -3/4

Answer 2

`-(3)/(4)`

Explanation:

Slope

(2, 5) and (14, -4)

_______________

When we solve for slope within two points, we have to follow the formula of slope.

`(y^2-y^1)/(x^2-x^1)`

X and Y - The first and second number in both points

1 and 2 - The first or second number within one point

Substitute :

`(-4-5)/(14-2)`

`(-9)/(12)`

Simplify :

`-(3)/(4)`
