Question

Find the slope between each points.
(-8,18) and (-14,-3)

Answer 1

Slope: 7/2

Explanation:

Slope formula:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) ==> where m=slope, (x1, y1), (x2, y2)

(x1, y1), (x2, y2) ==> (x1=-8, y1=18), (x2=-14, y2=-3)

m=(-3-18)/(-14-(-8)) ==> plugin y2=-3, y1=18 and x2=-14, x1=-8

m=(-(3+18))/(-14+8)

m=(-21)/(-6) ==> simplify

m=21/6 ==> m=7/2

Answer 2

the slope between the two points is 3.5.

Explanation:

To find the slope between two points, you can use the formula: slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). Plugging in the coordinates for the two points, we get: slope = (-3 - 18) / (-14 - (-8)). Simplifying the expression, we get: slope = -21 / -6Which simplifies to slope = 3.5, So slope between the two points is 3.5.
