Question

What is the slope of the line that contains these points?15171921Y-10 21426slope:

Answer 1

1) Let's find the slope through the slope-intercept form equation

Let's choose two points (12,-10) (17,2)

Plugging into the slope-intercept form of the linear function formula:

`\begin{gathered} m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)\text{ } \\ m=(2-(-10))/(17-12) \\ m=(12)/(5) \end{gathered}`

So, the slope of this line is 12/5
