which of the following is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-1 10) and (5 2)

Answer 1

slope = "rise over run" = (10-2)/(-1-5) = 8/-6 = -4/3

slope is the change in y coordinates 10 to 2, divided by change in x coordinates -1 to 5, or -8/6=-4/3

you can go from one point to the other, or the 2nd point to the 1st and get the same slope
