Hello!
If we use these two points, we can find the slope by dividing the difference in the y-values by the difference in the x-values as shown below.
[tex] \frac{2+3}{6+2} =\frac{5}{8} [/tex]
Therefore, our slope is D. 5/8.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
The slope of the line using the two points where the line goes through is 5/8 (fourth option)
Step-by-step explanation:
The line goes through the points:
P1=(-2,-3)=(x1,y1)→x1=-2, y1=-3
P2=(6,2)=(x2,y2)→x2=6, y2=2
m=(y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
Replacing the known values in the equation above:
m=(2-(-3)) / (6-(-2))
m=(2+3) / (6+2)
m=5/8
