PROBLEM 2

What is the slope of the line whose equation has the following solutions?
Give an exact number.
Solution: x = -2.5 y = 0.5
Solution: x=2 y = 2
The slope is

Answer 1

1/3

Explanation:

Answer 2

Explanation:

m =
`(y_(2) -y_(1) )/(x_(2) -x_(1) )`

(- 2.5, 0.5)

(2, 2)

m =
`(0.5 - 2)/(2 - (- 2.5))` = -
`(1)/(3)`
