Question

find the value of x if the slop of the line joining the points (x,4) and (7,-6) is -5\2​

Answer 1

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

slope(m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

* plugging the values in formula . . .

(-5/2) = (-6-4) / (7-x)

-5/2 = -10 / 7-x

cross multiplying now,

-5(7-x) = 2(-10)

-35 + 5x = -20

5x = 35 - 20

5x = 15

x = 3 Ans.
