Question

Find the slope of the line containing the two given points: (2. 16) and (19, -7)

Answer 1

Answer:

$-\frac{17}{23}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line can be obtained using the following equation.

$\frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}$.

So, the slope of the line is:

$\frac{19-2}{-7-16}\\ =-\frac{17}{23}$.
