Basically the formula of finding slope is (y^2- y^1)
(x^2- x^1)
So let's substitute the numbers in:
(-2,4) (5,3)
-2 is x^1 and 5 is x^2
4 is y^1 and 3 is y^2
Okay if y^2=3 and y^1=5, let's substitute the "Y" values of the equation.
(3-4)
(x^2- x^1)
Okay if x^2=5 and x^1=-2
The last substitution should look like this.
(3-4)
(5-[-2])
Let's simplify:
-1
7
Therefore the slope is
-1
7
Let's look at the "X" values.
Points: (2, 1) and (5, 3) Slope: 2/3
Points: (3, 4) and (2, 1) Slope: 3
Points: (2,-5) and (3, -3) Slope: (-3 - -5)/(3-2) = 2
Points: (2, 1) and (5, 3) Slope: 2/3
Points: (1, -2) and (3, -5) Slope: -3/2
Points: (3,-1) and (-2, -5) Slope: 4/5
Points: (-6, -2) and (-3, -7) Slope: (-2--7)/(-6--3) = -5/3
Points: (-2, 3) and (1, 1) Slope: -2/3
Points: (-2, 3) and (1, 1) Slope: -2/3
The slope is 1/2.
Points: (3,-1) and (-2, -5) Slope: 4/5
Points: (0, 0) and (2, 6) Slope: 3
