Question
Find the slope of the line that passes through:
(2, -2) and (4, 8)
- 4
- -3
- 5
- -4
Hint:
Given the points ( x1 , y1 ) and ( x2 , y2 ) slope of line that pass through it will be
The correct answer is: 5
Given points (2, -2) and (4, 8).
Slope formula
Step 1 : Substitute points in the formula we get slope.
= 8 - (-2) / 4 - 2
= 10 / 2
= 5
So , m=5 is the slope of the line .
With the help of points calculate slope using the formula .
