Question

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (−2, −8) and (−3, −9) ?

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = Change in y ÷ change in x

The line passes through (-2,-8) and (-3,-9)

Slope = $\frac{-8--9}{-2--3}$ = 1

Answer 2

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula: ⇒ $\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}$

$\frac{(-9)-(-8)}{(-3)-(-2)}=\frac{-1}{-1}=1$

Therefore, the slope is 1.

1 is the correct answer.

I hope this helps you, and have a wonderful day!
