4) The slope of the line passing through the
points A (-3, 5) and B (4,-1) is .....
(a) or (b) – 9 (c) 7 (d) - 2 / 2
Answers
A =(x1, y1)
B =(x2, y2)
slope line = y2 - y1 ÷ x2 -x1
= 5-(-1) ÷ 4-(-3)
= 6/7
I hope it can help you
Answer:
-1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Concept= Slope of line.
Given= The coordinates of line
To find= The slope.
Explanation=
We have been asked to find the slope of the line passing through the
points A (-3, 5) and B (4,-1).
The slope of line is found as:
If the the points given are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).
The slope of the line is calculated as m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), here m is slope.
We have been given the points A(-3,5) and B(4,-1).
So we take our (x1,y1) =(-3,5) and (x2,y2)= (4,-1).
So the slope is m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m= (4 -5)/(-1 -(-3))
m= (-1)/(2)
m= -1/2.
Therefore the slope of line passing through the points A (-3, 5) and B (4,-1) is -1/2.
