Question

Find the slope of the line passing through each of the following pairs of points. (−8, −3), (−1, −2)

Answer 1

slope passing thru 2 points formula
m=y2-y1/x2-x1
m= -2-(-3)/-1-(-8)
= -2+3/-1+8
= 1/7

Answer 2

Hello!

Step-by-step explanation:

Lesson: Exploring Slope/Slope-intercept form

Slope: $\frac{Y^2-Y^1}{X^2-X^1}=\frac{rise}{run}$

$\frac{(-2)-(-3)=-2+3=1}{(-1)-(-8)=-1+8=7}=\frac{1}{7}$

Answer: 1/7

Slope is 1/7

Hope this helps!
