Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points(-1,-7) and (-2,-5)?Write your answer in simplest form

Answer 1

-2

Explanation:

slope formula= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(-1,-7) is (x1,y1)

(-2,-5) is (x2,y2)

Plug in numbers into slope equation

((-5)-(-7))/((-2)-(-1)) = 2/-1

Simplify
