Question

What is the slope of (2,5) (-6,-3)

Answer 1

m=1

Explanation:

(2,5);(−6,−3)

(x1,y1)=(2,5)

(x2,y2)=(−6,−3)

Use the slope formula:

m=

y^2−y^1

x^2−x^1

=

−3−5/−6−2

=

−8/−8

=1

Answer:

m=1

Answer 2

`\boxed{\sf{1}}`

Explanation:

To solve this problem, you have to use a slope formula.

Slope formula:

`\Longrightarrow: \sf{(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=(Rise)/(run) }`

`\sf{y_2=(-3)}\\\\\sf{y_1=5}\\\\\sf{x_2=(-6)}\\\\\sf{x_1=2}`

Rewrite the problem down.

`\sf{((-3)-5)/((-6)-2) }`

Solve.

`\sf{((-3)-5)/((-6)-2)=(-8)/(-8)=\boxed{\sf{1} }`

• Therefore, the slope is 1, which is our answer.
