Question

3. Find the slope of the line through the pair of points.
(12, 2), (-7,5)

Answer 1

-3/19

Explanation:

Given data

We have the coordinates

(12, 2), (-7,5)

x1=12

y1=2

x2=-7

y2=5

The expression for the slope is given as

Slope= y2-y1/x2-x1

Substiute

Slope= 5-2/-7-12

Slope= 3/-19

Hence the slope is -3/19
