Find the slope of the line that passes through (7, 3) and (2, 11).
Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.
To find the slope of the line that passes through the points (7, 3) and (2, 11), we use the formula:
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
The change in y is 11 - 3 = 8, and the change in x is 2 - 7 = -5. Therefore, the slope is:
slope = 8/(-5)
Simplifying this fraction gives us -8/5.
