What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (3, 3) and (2, 5)?
m= 2 m= -1/2 m= 1/2 or m= -2
I came up with m= - 1/2 but I'm really not sure if Im correct
(5-3)/(2-3) = 2/-1 = -2
Thank you damon
To find the slope (m) of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), you can use the formula:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Let's calculate the slope using the given points (3, 3) and (2, 5):
m = (5 - 3) / (2 - 3)
m = 2 / -1
m = -2
So, the correct answer is m = -2.
