(-3, -3), (1, -5)find the slope of the line

Sagot :

Let:

[tex]\begin{gathered} (x1,y1)=(-3,-3) \\ (x2,y2)=(1,-5) \end{gathered}[/tex]

the slope m is given by:

[tex]\begin{gathered} m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} \\ m=\frac{-5-(-3)}{1-(-3)}=\frac{-5+3}{1+3}=\frac{-2}{4}=-\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]
