Find the slope of the line passing through the points (3,-2) and (1,3).

Question

Find the slope

Answer 1

Use the slope formula

 

m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

 

 

to find the slope between the two points.

Answer 2

Slope = -2.5

Answer 3

Guys, this same person has posted multiple problems in a short time frame.

 

They're not looking for help, they're looking for free homework/test solutions.  By replying to them, you're doing at least one of the following harmful things:

 

(1)  Taking money out of the pocket of a tutor near the student

(2)  Preventing the student from learning, through effort, how to solve the problem on her own.

 

NOBODY ever gets work or exposure by posting responses in this section.  I do it when I have time to kill, and usually only then to problems which are actually interesting rather than boiler-plate.  At the very least, check how many questions you see on the same page posted by the same person before you respond.

Answer 4

Use the slope formula

 

m=(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-X₁)

 

(X₁,y₁)= (3,-2)

(x₂,y2)= (1,3)

 

plug the the numbers into the formula and reduce. Keep slope as a fraction. If you have more questions, feel free to message me!
