Question

What is the slope of the line that contains points (−3 −5) and (2 7)

Answer 1

Explanation:

To find the slope of a line when only given two points on that line, divide the difference in the y points by the difference in the x points.

slope = (-5 - 7)/(-3 - 2) = -12/-5 = 12/5

slope = (7 - -5)/(2 - -3) = 12/
