Question

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (-1, 7) and (3, 4)?

Answer 1

Answer:

-3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope is [ y2-y1/x2-x1 ].

4-7/3-(-1)

-3/4

Best of Luck!

Answer 2

Answer:

The slope is -3/4x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = $\frac{y_{2} -y_1}{x_{2} -x_1}$

$\frac{4-7}{3--1}$

$\frac{4-7}{3+1}$

$\frac{-3}{4}$

$-\frac{3}{4}$
