Question

Find the slope of the line (2, -10), (8, -16)

Answer 1

Answer:

m=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is equal to the change in y over the change in x, or rise over run.

m=change in y/change in x

The change in x is equal to the difference in x-coordinates (also called run), and the change in y is equal to the difference in y-coordinates (also called rise).

m=y^2-y^/x^2-x^1

Substitute in the values of x and y into the equation to find the slope.

m=4−(8)/3−(2)

m=-4
