The formula of a slope:
[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
We have the points (5, 2) and (0, -13). Substitute:
[tex]m=\dfrac{-13-2}{0-5}=\dfrac{-15}{-5}=3[/tex]
Answer: slope = 3
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
We are to find the slope of a line which passes through the two given points: (5, 2) and (0, -13).
We know the formula of the slope (m):
[tex]Slope[/tex][tex](m)[/tex]=[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
So putting in the values of the coordinates of the given points in the formula to get:
Slope = [tex]\frac{-13-2}{0-5} =\frac{-15}{-5}[/tex] = 3
Therefore, the slope slope of a line which passes through the two given points: (5, 2) and (0, -13) is 3.
