Question

Find the slope of the line through the given pair of points.
(-2, 18), (10,3)

Answer 1

Given two points P1=(-2,18) and P2=(10,3), we can calculate the slope of the line that pass through them as:

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=(3-18)/(10-(-2))=(-15)/(12)=-(5)/(4)=-1.25`

Answer: the slope is -5/4 or -1.25.
