Question

What is the slope of the line show belowww

Answer 1

c 2

Explanation:

We know 2 points.

The slope of the line is given by

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

=(7--3)/(3--2)

= (7+3) / (3+2)

= 10/5

=2

Answer 2

`\boxed{C.\:\: 2}`

Explanation:

The given line passes through the points,

`(x_1,y_1)=(-2,-3)` and
`(x_2,y_2)=(3,7)`.

We can find the slope using the following;

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

or

`m=(y_1-y_2)/(x_1-x_2)`

Using the first formula;

We obtain;

`m=(7--3)/(3--2)`

`\Rightarrow m=(7+3)/(3+2)`

`\Rightarrow m=(10)/(5)`

`\Rightarrow m=2`

The correct answer is C.
