Question

What is the slope of the segment with endpoints at (300,-2) and (500,6) ?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope (m) = ΔY/ΔX = 1/25 = 0.04

θ = arctan( ΔY/ΔX ) = 2.2906100426385°

ΔX = 500 – 300 = 200

ΔY = 6 – -2 = 8

Distance (d) = √(ΔX² + ΔY²) = √40064

= 200.15993605115

Equation of the line:

y = 0.04x – 14
