Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-2, -3), and (5, 4)?

-1
3
1
-3

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope=4-(-3)/5-(-2)

=4+3/5+2

=7/7=1

So slope is 1.

Answer 2

The slope is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the point = $(x_{1} , y_{1} ) = (-2, -3)$

Let another point = $(x_{2} , y_{2} ) = (5, 4)$

Slope of the line that passes through the points (-2, -3) and (5, 4),

Slope = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

Slope = $\frac{4-(-3)}{5-(-2)}$ = $\frac{7}{7}$ = 1

Hence, the slope is 1.
