Question

Find the slope of the points ( -7,-1) and (-18,-2)

Answer 1

Given

points ( -7,-1) and (-18,-2)

Find

Slope

Explanation

slope of the two points is given by

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

so,

slope =

$\begin{gathered} m=\frac{(-2-(-1))}{(-18-(-7))} \\ \\ m=\frac{-2+1}{-18+7} \\ \\ m=-\frac{1}{-11} \\ \\ m=\frac{1}{11} \end{gathered}$

Final Answer

Hence , the slope is 1/11
