Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-10,0) and (-13,3)?

Answer 1

Explanation:

(-10,0) and (-13,3)

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

y2 = 3, y1 = 0, x2 = -13, x1 = -10

: m = (3 - 0)/(-13 + 10)

m = 3/-3

m = -1

Slope m = -1

Answer 2

3/-3 basically -1

Explanation:

do the y2-y1 / x2-1 formula and put the coordinates in and that is:

3-0 / -13- -10

or

3/-3

or -1

BTW: if the numerator and denominator are both negative,
