Question

What is the slope of the line passing through the following points: `(-3,-6) ; (25,17)`?

Answer 1

Slope is `(23)/(28)`

Explanation:

Slope of a line passing through the points `(x1,y1)` and `(x2,y2)` is `(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)`

Putting the given points into the formula, we get

`(17-(-6))/(25-(-3))` = `(23)/(28)`
