Q:

Using the given points and line, determine the slope of the line. (-3, 0) and (2, 7) slope = -7/5slope = -5/7slope = 5/7slope = 7/5

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:Slope= 7/5Step-by-step explanation:The slope of a line is determined as a ratio of the change in y to the change in x. Slope=Δy/ΔxΔy=y₂-y₁Δx=x₂-x₁Therefore we can use the the x and y coordinates from the points given, (-3,0) and (2,7) to calculate the slope.m= (7-0)/(2-⁻3)Slope= 7/5When a negative number is subtracted from a number it the operation sign changes to addition.
