Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (−10,−8) and (-8, -16) Write your answer in simplest form.

Answer 1

Explanation:

given,

point = ( -10, -8 ) and ( -8, -16 )

we know,

slope = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

x1 , y1 = (-10 , -8 )

x2 , y2 = ( -8, -16 )

after inserting the values we got,

→ -16 - (-8 ) / -8 - (-10)

→ -8/2 → -4

therefore, slope of line is -4.
