Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (-2, 4) and (-5, -6).

-217
10/3
-2/3

Answer 1

10/3.

Explanation:

To find the slope, we do the rise over the run.

In this case, the rise is 4 - (-6) = 4 + 6 = 10.

The run is -2 - (-5) = -2 + 5 = 3.

So, the slope is 10/3.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

10/3

Explanation:

gradient=y²-y¹

x²-x¹

= -6-4

-5-(-2)

= -10

-5+2

= -10

-3

=10/3
