10. What is the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points? (1 point)
(-2, 1), (2, 17)
4
O 17
0-15

04

Answer 1

`\boxed{\sf{4}}}`

Explanation:

Use a slope form.

Slope:

`\sf{(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=(rise)/(run) }`

y₂ = (17)

y₁ = (1)

x₂ = (2)

x₁ = (-2)

Then, rewrite the problem.

Solve.

`\sf{(17-1)/(2-(-2))=(16)/(4)=(16/4)/(4/4)=(4)/(1)=\boxed{\sf{4} }`

Therefore, the slope is 4, which is our answer.
