Question

Can you solve this for me

Answer 1

The slope of the given line passing through the coordinates is 3

The slope of a line is expressed using the formula

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

Using the coordinate points (-1, -5) and (2, 1)

Slope = 1-(-5)/2-(-1)

Slope = (1+5)/2+1

Slope = 6/3

Slope = 3

Hence the slope of the given line is 3
