If a point goes through 1 and -1 what type of slope is it?
If a point passes through (1, -1), it is a single point and does not have a slope. Only a line or a curve can have a slope.
To determine the slope of a line passing through two points, we can use the formula:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
In this case, the first point is (1, -1). Let's call this point (x1, y1), where x1 = 1 and y1 = -1.
Since you haven't given another point, we cannot determine the slope with this information alone. The slope of a line depends on the second point through which it passes. If you provide the second point, I would be able to help you determine the type of slope.
To determine the type of slope, we need to find the slope between two points, in this case (1, 1) and (-1, -1).
The slope (m) between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is calculated using the formula:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Let's substitute the values from our points into the formula:
m = (-1 - 1) / (-1 - 1)
m = (-2) / (-2)
m = 1
So, for the given points (1, 1) and (-1, -1), the slope is 1.
To interpret the type of slope, we can say that the slope of 1 represents a positive (or upward) slope.
