find the slope between (80, 878) and (146, 702). Round to one decimal place.
M=
To find the slope, you can use the formula:
M = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Given:
Point 1: (80, 878)
Point 2: (146, 702)
Let's substitute the values into the formula:
M = (702 - 878) / (146 - 80)
Simplifying further:
M = -176 / 66
Calculating the slope:
M = -2.7 (rounded to one decimal place)
Therefore, the slope between the points (80, 878) and (146, 702) is -2.7.
To find the slope between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), you can use the formula:
M = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
Given the points (80, 878) and (146, 702), substituting the values into the formula:
M = (702 - 878) / (146 - 80)
M = (-176) / (66)
M ≈ -2.7 (rounded to one decimal place)
Therefore, the slope between (80, 878) and (146, 702) is approximately -2.7.
