Points: (1, 3) and (3, -2) Slope: -5/2 or -2.5
Points: (-3, 5) and (6, -1) Slope: (5--1)/(-3-6) = -2/3
To find the slope of a perpendicular line, take the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line. (Flip the top and bottom of the fraction and change the sign.) The slope of 3 can be written as 3/1. The slope of a line that is perpendicular is -1/3.
slope=(2-1)/(3-5)=-1/2
between points (x0, y0) and (x1, y1): slope = change_in_y/change_in_x → slope = (y1 - y0)/(x1 - x0) → slope = (3 - 0)/(1 - 2) = 3/(-1) = -3
It shows the relationship of y in terms of x. [y = (yIntercept) + ((slope)*(x))] [slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)]

A slope of -3 is steeper.
You can write it either in standard form (ax + by = c) or in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b)
If you mean points of (1, 5) and (-1, -1) then the slope works out as 3
The slope of two lines are perpendicular only if their slopes multiplied together equal -1 (m1*m2 = -1). So if a line has a slope of -3 then a line perpendicular to this one has a slope of -1/-3 or 1/3.
Points: (1, -3) and (2, -5) Slope: -2
Points: (-2, 3) and (1, 1) Slope: -2/3
Points: (-2, 3) and (1, 1) Slope: -2/3
Points: (-3, -1) and (3, -2) Slope: -1/6
Points: (1, 3) and (3, -2) Slope: -5/2 or -2.5
Points: (1, 7) and (-3, 2) Slope: 5/4 or 1.25
