Question

find the slope of the line between(5,-2)(-8,-5)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the difference of coordinates to find the slope.

Slope of line passing through (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

Slope of line passing through (5, -2) and (-8, -5) = (-5-(-2))/(-8-5) = -3/(-13) = 3/13
