Work with Steps to find Slope of Line passing through (8, 10) & (-7, 14)
Question:
Find what is the slope of a line passing through two points (8, 10) (-7, 14) on XY plane?
Workout :Find what is the slope of a line passing through two points (8, 10) (-7, 14) on XY plane?
step1 Address the formula, input parameters and values
(x1, y1) = (8, 10)
(x2, y2) = (-7, 14)
step 2 Apply x1, y1, x2 & y2 in below slope formula.
m = y2 - y1x2 - x1
= 14 - (10)/-7 - (8)
= 14 - 10/-7 - 8
= 4/-15
slope m = -0.2667
