Question

What is the slope of the line through (-1,-7) and (3,9)

Answer 1

m=4

Explanation:

m = change in y/change in x

m = 9-(-7) / 3-)-1)

m= 16 / 4

m = 4 (slope)

Answer 2

m=4, therefore your slope is 4.

Steps:

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

Substitute values in:

m= 9-(-7)/3-(-1)

Then just simplify. :)

Hope this helps. :)
