Question

Calculate the slope of a line that passes through the following two points.

(5,-2) and (4, -8)
help please it’s due tonight

Answer 1

Yo, the slope of the line is 6 yo!

Explanation:

You see, to find the slope of 2 points, Here's what ya do little fella: Pick any y-coordinate point(-2) or (-8). When you do, subtract -2 and -8 so in this case, -y - (-x) = -y + x. So, when done correctly, you get 6 because -2 - (-8) is equal to -2 + 8. Ya go to the x-coordinate. If you subtracted -8 from -2, you have to subtract 4 from 5. If you also subtracted -2 from 8, you have to subtract 5 from 4. So, it has to be in order. 5 - 4 = 1. So then, you divide your answer 6/1 = 6. So 6 is the slope people. NA YOU PEOPLE EHN, YA BETTER GO AND START LEARNING ALGEBRA.

Answer 2

the slope is 6 (6/1)

Explanation:

Use the slope formula: y2-y1/x2-x1 ( i did the one that was further to the right ats the second pair rather than the order that you put it in)
