Question

HELP ASAP 30 POINTS PLEASE

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points A(–2, –1) and D(3, 5)? A. 6/5 B. 5/6 C. -5/6 D. -6/5

Answer 1

A. 6/5

Explanation:

(x1,y1)=(−2,−1)

(x2,y2)=(3,5)

the slope formula is

m=

y2−y1

x2−x1

=

5−−1

3−−2

= 6/5

Answer 2

A

Explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m =
`(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )`

with (x₁, y₁ ) = A(- 2, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = D(3, 5)

m =
`(5+1)/(3+2)` =
`(6)/(5)`
