Question

Find the slope between (3,1) and (-1,11)

Answer 1

Answer:

m= -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

(x1,y1)=(3,1)

(x2,y2)=(−1,11)

Use the slope formula:

m=y2−y1 divided by x2−x1

=11−1 .  −1−3=

Answer 2

Answer:

-2$\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

using the formula $\frac{(y_{2}-y_{1})}{(x_{2}-x_{1})}$ to find the slope, we get$\frac{11-1}{-1-3}$, which is equal to -$\frac{10}{4}$

Simplifying this, we get -2$\frac{1}{2}$.
