Question

8) Use the slope formula to find the slope between
the points: (-1,2) and (3,- 3)
m =

Answer 1

Answer:

-5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope formula to find the slope

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( -3 -2)/( 3 - -1)

   = ( -3-2 ) /( 3+1)

   = -5/4

Answer 2

Answer:

m = -5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$.

• $\frac{(-3)-(2)}{3-(-1)}$
• $\frac{-5}{3+1}$
• $\frac{-5}{4}$

Therefore, m = -5/4.
