Question

Find the slope of the line that passes though the given points

Answer 1

1. (7,3) and (13,8)

`\text{slope}=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=(8-3)/(13-7)=(5)/(6)`

2. ( -5,2) and ( -1, -6)

`\text{slope}=(-6-2)/(-1-(-5))=(-8)/(-1+5)=(-8)/(4)=-2`

3. (9, -3) and (9,4)

`\text{slope}=(4-(-3))/(9-9)=(4+3)/(0)=(7)/(0)\text{ }`

4. ( -2, -4) and ( -11, -7)

`\text{slope}=(-7-(-4))/(-11-(-2))=(-7+4)/(-11+2)=(-3)/(-9)=(1)/(3)`
