What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (0, –7) and (–4, 3)?
A. 5/2
B. −5/2
C. −3/2
D. 3/2

Respuesta :

Answer: [tex]-5/2[/tex]

Find the slope between your two points

[tex](x_{1} ,y_{1} )=(0,-7)[/tex]

[tex](y_{2} ,y_{2})=(-4,3)[/tex]

Use the slope formula

[tex]m=y_{2}-y_{1} /x_{2}-x_{1}[/tex]

[tex]3--7/-4-0[/tex]

[tex]10/-4[/tex]

[tex]-5/2[/tex]

Answer:

[tex] \frac{ - 5}{2} [/tex]

ANSWER B IS CORRECT.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2} \\ \frac{ - 7 - 3}{ 0 - 4} \\ = \frac{ -10}{2} \\ = \frac{ - 5}{2} [/tex]
