Question

What is the slope of a line that passes through the points twenty three, nine and negative thirty two, fourteen

Answer 1

slope of a line=change in y over change in x

Explanation:

slope=14-9÷-22-23

slope=5÷-45

slope=-1/8

Answer 2

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

Point 1: (23, 9)

Point 2: (-32, 14)

Plug values into the slope formula and simplify to find m, the slope:

m = (14 - 9) / (-32 - 23)

m = 5 / -55

m = -1 / 11

The slope is -1 / 11.

Hope this helps!! :)
