Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through (12, -22) and (93, 32).

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

Answer 1

The formula to find the slope of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is:

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

Using the given points (12, -22) and (93, 32):

m = (32 - (-22)) / (93 - 12)

m = 54 / 81

m = 2 / 3

So, the slope of the line passing through the given points is 2/3.
