Question

question 13
consider the following three points.
(-4, 4), (0, 3), (5, 7)
step 1 of 3: find the slope of the line between the first and second points.
answer 2 points
m =

Explanation:

Step1: Recall slope formula

The slope $m$ between two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$.

Step2: Assign points to formula

First point $(-4,4)=(x_1,y_1)$, second point $(0,3)=(x_2,y_2)$. Substitute values:
$m=\frac{3-4}{0-(-4)}=\frac{-1}{4}$

Answer:

$m=-\frac{1}{4}$
