Question

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-3, -8) and (5, 6).

Answer 1

7/4

Explanation:

Slope is Rise over Run or the difference in the Y points over the difference in the X points. (x,y)

Rise is a total of 14 points, Run is a total of 8 points.

So slope is 14/8 which can be simplified to 7/4
