Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (3, -4) and (7, 4)?

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope m = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (3, -4) and (7, 4). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{4-(-4)}{7-3}=\dfrac{8}{4}=2$
