Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-3, -3)(−3,−3) and (-18, -23) ?(−18,−23)? Write your answer in simplest form.

Answer 1

`(4)/(3)`

Explanation:

1. the requred slope can be calculated using the formula:

`slope=(|y_1-y_2|)/(|x_2-x_1|);`

2. according to the formula above:

slope=(23-3)/(18-3)=20/15=4/3
