Question

Find the slope of AB through points A(1,7) and B(-1,4). m of AB=

Answer 1

Hi there & welcome to brainly !

Answer:

$\huge{ \boxed{ \bold{ \tt{ \frac{3}{2}}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

A ( 1 , 7 ) , B ( - 1 , 4 )

To find :

Slope = ?

Solution :

Let A ( 1 , 7 ) ↦ ( x₁ , y₁ )

Let B ( - 1 , 4 ) ↦ ( x₂ , y₂ )

Finding the slope :

$\boxed{ \tt{slope \: ( \: m)= \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} }}$

$\sf{↦ \: slope = \frac{4 - 7}{ - 1 - 1}}$

$\sf{↦ \: slope = \frac{ - 3}{ - 2}}$

$\sf{↦ \: slope = \boxed{ \sf{ \frac{3}{2} }}}$

And we're done !

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
