Question

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-7,-7) and (-3, 6)

Answer 1

The slope is 13/4.

Explanation:

Slope formula:

`\displaystyle (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

`\displaystyle (6-(-7))/((-3)-(-7))=(13)/(4)`

`\huge\boxed{(13)/(4)}`, which is our answer.

Answer 2

13/4

Explanation:

The slope of the line between 2 points is found by

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

= (6--7)/(-3--7)

= (6+7)/(-3+7)

= 13/4
