Question

find the slope of the line passing through the points (3,-2) and (-1,4)

Answer 1

Slope Of line passing thought two given points
say (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by...

$m \: = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

Using this we can find the slope of line passing thought (3,-2) and (-1,4) as..

$m \: = \: \frac{4 - ( - 2)}{ - 1 - 3} \\ = > m \: = \frac{6}{ - 4} = \frac{ - 3}{2}$

Answer 2

Hello there! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

$SLOPE=\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\frac{RISE}{RUN}$

$\frac{4-(-2)}{(-1)-3}=\frac{6}{-4}=\frac{6/2}{-4/2}=\frac{3}{-2}=-\frac{3}{2}$

Slope is -3/2

Final answer is -3/2

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day! :)

:D

Thank you!
