Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
x1 = - 2
y1 = 5
x2 = 2
y2 = 9
Formula : -
Slope = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )
Slope
= ( 9 - 5 ) ) / ( 2 - ( - 2 )
= 4 / 4
= 1
Answer:
slope is 1
Step-by-step explanation:
from (-2, 5) to (2,9)
slope m= (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) = (9-5) / (2- -2) = 4 / 4 =1
*
you can think of how do you get from one point to the other
first point (-2, 5) go to second point (2,9)
-first on the y-axis (vertical) you start at 5 and go four up to get to 9
-second on the x-axis (horizontal) you start at -2 and go four right to get to 2
slope = change in y / change in x = four up /four right = 4/4 = 1
-moving down or to the left will make the numbers negative
