Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (7, -9) and

(15, -29)? Write your answer in simplest form.​

Answer 1

To find the slope of the line you do

Y2-y1/ x2-x1

So -29-(-9)/15-7= -29+9/8= -20/8= -5/2 is the slope.

Answer 2

Answer: -5/2

Step-by-step explanation: Because you take the x1 and y1 and subtract it from x2 and y2. That gives you -20/8. Then you simplify.
