Question

slope of line passing through the points P (-4 , -7) and Q (-1, 2) is ​

Answer 1

Hello !!

For you answer this question, you only need make use of this method below. See the resolution.

m = (yB - yA)/(xB - xA)

m = (2 - (-7))/(-1 - (-4))

m = (2 + 7)/(-1 + 4)

m = 9/3

m = 3

Final result : the slope is 3.

I hope I have collaborated !

Answer 2

$\huge \red{\mathfrak{solution}}$

Given:

points are

• p (-4,-7) or (x1,y1).

and

• Q(-1,2)or (x2,y2)

As we know that :

slope =

$\boxed{\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} }$

put the value :

$\rightarrow \: \frac{2 - ( - 7)}{ - 1 - ( - 4)} \\ \\ \rightarrow \: \frac{2 + 7}{ - 1 + 4} \\ \\ \rightarrow \: \frac{9}{3} \\ \\ \rightarrow \: 3$

Hence the slope is

$\huge \green{ \boxed{3}}$
