Question

What is the slope of the linear function that passes through the points (-2, 3) and (3, -4)?

Answer 1

• (-2,3)
• (3,-4)

`\boxed{\sf Slope(m)=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)}`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto m=(-4-3)/(3+2)`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto m=(-7)/(5)`

Answer 2

-7/5

Explanation:

Slope,

(-4-3)/(3-(-2))

= -7/5
