Question 360720: Does this make sense for answers? I'm trying but I just want to double check...
For each of the following, find the slope, if it exists, of
the line determined by the given pair of points:

a. (4,3) and (-5,0)
0-3 -3 0
M= -5-4 = -1= 3
b. (√5,2) and (1,2)
2-2 0
M= 1-5= -4
c. (a,a) and (b,b)
b-a
M=b-a= undetermined

Hi,



a. (4,3) and (-5,0)

m = (0-3)/(-5-4) = -3/-9 = 1/3



b. (5^.5,2) and (1,2)

m = (2-5^.5)/(1-2)



c.(a,a) and (b,b)

m = (b-a)/(b-a) = 1
