Question

Find the slope of the line that goes through the points (12,-13) and (14,10)?

Answer 1

11.5

Explanation:

(x1,y1) = (12,-13)

(x2,y2) = (14,10)

Slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

= (10-(-13)) / (14-12)

= (10+13) / 2

= 23/2

= 11.5

Answer 2

The slope is the change in Y over the change in X

Slope = (10 - -13) / (14 -12)

Slope = 23/2
