Question

What is the slope passing through the points (11,-5) and (1,20)

Answer 1

Answer:

-2.5 or -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope we need to find the change in y and divide it by the change in x:

m = change in y ÷ change in x

m = (-5 - 20) ÷ (11 - 1)

m = 25 ÷ -10

m = -2.5 or -5/2

Hope this helps!
