Question

find the slope given the ordered pair (4,-5) and (-1,-2)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = y'-y/x'-x

= -2+5/-1-4

= -3/5

Answer 2

Answer:

$\Large\boxed{\mathsf{-\frac{3}{5} }}$

Step-by-step explanation:

SLOPE FORMULA:

$\Rightarrow \displaystyle \mathsf{\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}}}$

SOLUTIONS:

$\displaystyle \mathsf{Y_2=(-2)\\}}\\\\\displaystyle \mathsf{Y_1=(-5)}}\\\\\displaystyle \mathsf{X_2=(-1)}}\\\\\displaystyle \mathsf{X_1=4}}$

Solve.

$\displaystyle \mathsf{\frac{(-2)-(-5)}{(-1)-4}=\frac{3}{-5}=\boxed{\mathsf{-\frac{3}{5}}}}}  }}$

As a result, the slope is -3/5.
