Find the slope of the line passing through the points (3, 4) and (8, -3)
The slope of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by the formula:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Using the given points (3, 4) and (8, -3):
slope = (-3 - 4) / (8 - 3)
= (-7) / (5)
= -7/5
Therefore, the slope of the line passing through the points (3, 4) and (8, -3) is -7/5.
