Question

Determine the slope between the points (-3, 0) and (0, 5)

Determine the slope between the points (-1, 0) and (-2, 3)

Thank you!!

Answer 1

The first slope is -5/3
The second is -3

Answer 2

Part 1: 1 2/3

Part 2: -3

Step-by-step explanation

Part 1

(-3, 0) and (0, 5)

Slope = (change in y)/change in x)

= (5 - 0)/(0 - -3)

= 5/3

= 1 2/3

Part 2

(-1, 0) and (-2, 3)

Slope = (change in y)/change in x)

= (3 - 0)/(-2 - -1)

= 3/-1

= -3
