Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through (2, 11) and (7, 4).

Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

Idk how to do it

Answer 1

`\large\boxed{-(7)/(5)}`

Explanation:

The formula of a slope:

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

We have the points (2, 11) and (7, 4).

Substitute:

`m=(4-11)/(7-2)=(-7)/(5)=-(7)/(5)`
