Chapter 2: Q. 2 (page 89)

The slope of the line containing the points (-2, 3) and (3, 8) is ________.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The slope of the line containing the points (-2, 3) and (3, 8) is 1

Step by step solution

01

Given Information 

Two given points are (-2, 3) and (3, 8)

02

Slope 

Let P = (x1 , y1) and Q = (x2 , y2) be two distinct points. Slope of a line PQ is defined by a formula

m=y2-y1x2-x1Twopointsare(-2,3)and(3,8)Slopem=8-33-(-2)=55=1

The slope of the line containing the points (-2, 3) and (3, 8) is 1
