What’s the slope

Answer 1

For this case we have that by definition, the slope of a line is given by:

$m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}$

Where:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1})$ and$(x_ {2}, y_ {2})$ are two points through which the line passes.

According to the statement we have:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) :( 5, -5)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (7,3)$

Substituting we have:

$m = \frac {3 - (- 5)} {7-5} = \frac {3 + 5} {2} = \frac {8} {2} = 4$

Thus, the slope of a line that passes through the given points is: $m = 4$

Answer:

$m = 4$
