Use the equation y1-y2/x1-x2
PLug in the numbers -5--8/2--1
Solve 3/3

Find the slope of the line passing through (5, 5) and (-4, 5).
to find the slope of the line passing through the points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) you must do: (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) for the points (3,5) and (4,6): (6-5) / (4-3). you only need two points.
it's 4/7 And you need to write the questions like this: "Find the slope of the line pasing through (3,4) and (10,8)"
y=mx+b
Another set of points are needed to find the slope.
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).
That depends on the points in order to find the slope whereas no points have been given.
To find the slope of a line passing through two points, use the formula (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). In this case, the two points are (17, 101). Since there is only one given point, it is not possible to find the slope of the line passing through these points.
Since the line is horizontal, the slope is zero.

Points: (1, 5) and (0, 2) Slope: 3
The slope of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by the formula: (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). Using the points (0, -4) and (-6, 7), the slope is: (7 - (-4)) / (-6 - 0) = 11 / -6 = -11/6.
The slope of the line passing through any two points with coordinates x,y and x',y' is (y' - y)/(x' - x). In this instance, the slope is (5 - 4)/(0 - 2) = -1/2 .

Find the slope of the line passing through (5, 5) and (-4, 5).
This question mathematically makes no sense. A line passing through any given point can have any slope at all; you need two points to uniquely determine a line (and therefore the slope of that line).
