Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through each pair of points ( -20, -4) and (-12, -10)

Answer 1

You can find the slope using the following formula:

`\begin{gathered} m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) \\ \end{gathered}`

Where:

`\begin{gathered} (x1,y1)=(-20,-4) \\ (x2,y2)=(-12,-10) \\ m=(-10-(-4))/(-12-(-20))=(-6)/(8)=-(3)/(4) \end{gathered}`
