Question

Find the slope of the line passing through the points D(10, 8) and E(-4, 4).

Answer 1

`(2)/(7) x`

Explanation:

To find the slope of a line with 2 points we use the following formula.

`(y^2-y^1)/(x^2-x^1)`

So with the following points,

E(-4,4)

D(10,8)

So 8 is y2 and 4 is y1 8-4 = 4

10 - -4 = 14

Slope: 2/7x

Thus,

the slope of the line is 2/7x.

Hope this helps :)
