Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through (-34, 72) and (31, 27).

Answer 1

.

`(-34, 72) and (31, 27) \\x1 = - 34 \\ y1 = 72 \\ x2 = 31 \\ y2 = 27 \\`

`m \: = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) \\ m \: = (27 - 72)/(31 - ( - 34)) \\ m \: = ( - 45)/(65)`

`m \: = ( - 9)/(13)`

Answer 2

the answer i got is -9/13
