The slope is (6 - 1)/(1 - 2) = 5/(-1) = -5
To find the slope use the equation m = (y(1) - y(2)) / (x(1) - x(2)) So forthe points (1,1) & ( 5, -1) We have m = (1 - - 1) / (1 - 5) m = 2 / -4 m = 1/-2 m = -1/2 or -0.5 is the slope .
slope = change_in_y/change_in_x = (2 - 5)/(0 - 1) = -3/-1 = 3
Points: (1, 5) and (0, 2) Slope: 3
Points: (1, -2) and (3, -5) Slope: -3/2
Points: (1, -3) and (2, -5) Slope: -2
Points: (10, 1) and (5, 2)Slope: -1/5
slope=(2-1)/(3-5)=-1/2
Points: (1, 7) and (-3, 2) Slope: 5/4 or 1.25
Points: (2, 1) and (-4, -5) Slope: (1--5)/(2--4) = 1
The slope is (6 - 1)/(1 - 2) = 5/(-1) = -5
Points: (14, 5) and (20, 4) Slope: -1/6
The slope is -1 - 4 / -2 - 2 = -5/ -4 = 5/4
Endpoints: (-1, 1) and (1, 5) Slope: 2
Point: (2, -1) Slope: -5 Equation: y = -5x+9
Points: (5, -1) and (2, -5) Slope: 4/3 Perpendicular slope: -3/4
Points: (2, 5) and (-1, 5) Slope: 0 and so therefore it has no slope but is a straight line parallel to the x axis
