Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (2,-5) and (-2,3) PLEASE ANSWER

Answer 1

The slope of the line is the change in the Y values over the change in X values.

Using the given points (2,-5) and (-2,3)

The Y values are -5 and 3 and the X values are 2 and -2.

The slope = (3 - (-5)) / -2 - 2) = 8/-4 = -2

The slope is -2
