Given (-2,-3) (3,7) how do you find the slope of the line?

Answer 1

Nathan Axel

Slope is 2

#m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)#

#m=((7)-(-3))/((3)-(-2))#

#m=(10)/(5)#

#m=2#

To find the slope of the line passing through the points (-2, -3) and (3, 7), you use the formula for slope, which is (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points. Substituting the coordinates into the formula, you get (7 - (-3)) / (3 - (-2)). Simplify to find the slope.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
