What is the simplified slope for (3,2) and (5,12)

Sagot :

To find Y intercept
You do y2-y1/ x2-x1
Your y2 is 12, y1 is 2
Your x2 is 2 , x1 is 3
So 12-3/2-3
12-3 is 9
2-3=-1
9/-1 is -9
So your slope is -9

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that slope = rise/run.

Here the change in y (the rise) is -10 (y changes from +12 to +2), and the  change in x (the run) is 2, since x increases from 3 to 5).

The slope of the line through these points is m = rise / run = -10/2 = -5
