Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through the following points. (-3,0) (3, 2)​

Answer 1

Answer:

slope: 1/3

Explanation:

$\sf \boxed{\sf slope: \sf \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} }$    where (x1, y1), (x2, y2)

Solve for slope:

insert values

$\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{2-0}{3-(-3)}$

remove brackets

$\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{2}{3+3}$

simplify

$\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{2}{6}$

final answer

$\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{1}{3}$

Answer 2

Answer:

the slope of the line passing through (-3,0) (3,2) is 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is equal to the change in y over the change in x, or rise over run. m=change in y/change in x. The change in x is equal to the difference in x-coordinates (also called run), and the change in y is equal to the difference in y-coordinates (also called rise). m=y2-y1/x2-x1. Substitute in the values of x and y into the equation to find the slope. m=2−(0)3−(−3)m=2-(0)3-(-3) Simplify. m=13
