Find the slope if exist of the line containing the pair of points
(7,0) and (0,-1)
The slope m=

Answer 1

Answer:

m = 1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

(x1 = 7, y1 = 0) and (x2 = 0, y2= -1)

We know:

slope m = vertical change in y / horizontal change in x

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

Calculate slope:

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (-1-0)/(0-7) = -1/ -7 = 1/7
