Answer:

  • The slope is 2/3. The correct symbol is '+'.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

  • Slope = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }[/tex]

Work:

  • => [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }[/tex]
  • => [tex]\frac{12-8}{4-(-2)}[/tex]
  • => [tex]\frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Hence, the slope is 2/3. The correct symbol is '+'.

Answer:

The slope is 2/3. The correct symbol is "+".

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution :

Here's the required formula to find the slope :

[tex] \longrightarrow{\pmb{\sf{m = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}}}}[/tex]

Where :

[tex]\begin{gathered}\footnotesize\star{\sf{\pink{\underline{\underline{Here}}}}}\begin{cases} \sf m = slope \\ \sf y_2 = 12\\ \sf y_1 =8\\ \sf x_2 = 4 \\ \sf x_1 = - 2\end{cases} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Substituting all the given values in the formula to find slope :

[tex] \begin{gathered} \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m = \dfrac{12 - 8}{4 - ( - 2)}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m = \dfrac{4}{4 + 2}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m = \dfrac{4}{ 6}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m = \cancel{\dfrac{4}{6}}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{m = \dfrac{2}{3}}}}\\\\\qquad\small \star{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\pink{Slope = \dfrac{2}{3}}}}}}\end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the slope is 2/3. The correct symbol is "+".
