Find the slope of the points given...show work
(-5,-7) and (-1,0)


Sagot :

Answer: 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the slope between your two points.

(−5,−7);(−1,0)

(x1,y1)=(−5,−7)

(x2,y2)=(−1,0)

Use the slope formula:

m=y2−y1/x2−x1

= 0−−7/−1−−5

=7/4

Answer:

slope = 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

What you want to do is plug in the values to y2-y1/ x2-x1.

Soooooo

0-(-7)   = 7

-1-(-5) =   4

if you also want to find the y-intercpt

form you can plug in one of the y-values for y and one of the x-values for the x.

y = mx +b

0 =7/4(-1) +b

Then solve for b
