If two points on a line are A(−5, 7) and B(−2, 1), the rise is __________, and the run is __________, so the slope of the line is __________.

Respuesta :

Answer:

  • rise: -6
  • run: 3
  • slope: -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The "rise" is the change in y-values: 1 -7 = -6.

The "run" is the change in x-values: -2 -(-5) = 3.

The slope is the ratio of rise to run: -6/3 = -2.
