Answer:

The answer is

[tex] \frac{1}{3} \\ [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

[tex]m = \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1}\\[/tex]

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(8,4) and (5, 3).

The slope is

[tex]m = \frac{3 - 4}{5 - 8} = \frac{ - 1}{ - 3} = \frac{1}{3} \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

[tex] \frac{1}{3} \\ [/tex]

Hope this helps you

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Here;

The given coordinates are(8,4) and (5,3).

Use slope formulae.

[tex]slope(m) = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} [/tex]

Put all values.

[tex]m = \frac{3 - 4}{5 - 8} [/tex]

Simplify it to get answer.

[tex]m = \frac{ - 1}{-3} [/tex]

Therefore the slope is, 1/3.

Hope it helps....
