Question

find the slope of line that passes through (2,3) and (-1,7)

Answer 1

Given:

A line passes through the points (2, 3) and (-1, 7)

We will find the slope using the following formula:

$slope=m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Substitute the given points:

$slope=\frac{7-3}{-1-2}=\frac{4}{-3}=-\frac{4}{3}$

So, the answer will be:

The slope of the line = -4/3
