Find the slope of the line through (2, -3) and (-4, 3).

Question 1

Question 2

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{Slope = - 1}}}}}$

Explanation:

$\tt{Let \: the \: points \: be \: A \: and \: B}$

$\tt{Let \: A ( 2 , -3 ) \: be \: ( x1 , y1 ) \: and \: B ( -4 , 3 ) \: be \: ( x2 , y2)}$

$\underline{ \tt{Finding \: the \: slope \: of \: the \: line}}$

$\boxed{ \sf{Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) }}$

$\longmapsto{ \sf{Slope = (3 -( - 3))/( - 4 - 2) }}$

$\longmapsto{ \sf{Slope = (3 + 3)/( - 4 - 2)}}$

$\longmapsto{ \sf{Slope = (6)/( -6)}}$

$\longmapsto{ \boxed{ \sf{Slope = - 1}}}$
