What is the slope of the line through (-4,2)(−4,2)left parenthesis, minus, 4, comma, 2, right parenthesis and (3,-3)(3,−3)left parenthesis, 3, comma, minus, 3, right parenthesis?

Answer 1

(-4,2), (3,-3)

slope= (2+3)/(-4-3)= -5/7

slope = "rise over run" = difference in y coordinates divided by difference in corresponding x coordinates

= (2- -3)/(-4-3) or = (-3-2)/(3- -4) = -5/7
