Question

A line passes through the points A(-1,7) and B(1,3)

find the slope​

Answer 1

-2

Explanation:

Use the slope formula:

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

`m=(3-7)/(1-(-1)) =(-4)/(2) =-(4)/(2) =-2`

The slope of the line should be -2.

Answer 2

-2

Explanation:

The slope of a line is given by

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

= (3 - 7)/(1 - -1)

= (3-7)/(1+1)

= -4/2

-2
