Slope is the change in y/change in x.So slope of the line passing through the points: (2,-1) & (0,4) isslope = [-1 - 4] / [2 - 0] = -5/2
Points: (5, -1) and (2, -5) Slope: 4/3 Perpendicular slope: -3/4
Another point is needed to work out the slope and its straight line equation. Slope is worked out as: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) ----------------------- With slope m and going through a point (x0, y0), a line has equation: y - y0 = m(x - x0) Thus the point-slope equation of a line with slope m through the point (-1, 2) is given by: y - 2 = m(x - -1) → y - 2 = m(x + 1)
Points: (3,-1) and (-2, -5) Slope: 4/5
To find the slope of a line passing through a given pair of points is found by using the point slope formula. Y(2)-Y(1) over x(2) -x(1).
Points: (-2, 3) and (1, 1) Slope: -2/3
The line is vertical and so the slope is undefined.
The slope is 1/2.
Points: (2, -2) and (8, 1)Slope: 1/2
which equation has a slope of -1/2 and a graph that passes through (-3,4)?
The slope is (6 - 1)/(1 - 2) = 5/(-1) = -5
The slope would be 2,6.
Another coordinate is needed to work out the slope.
-5/3
-3/4
Points: (1, 2) and (3, 8) Slope: 3
The slope is -2/3.
