Find the slope of the line that goes through the points (-2,15) and (-1,-12)
\n" ); document.write( " enter the answer as an integer or a reduced fraction in the form a/b
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "The slope formula: m = \"%28%28y2-y1%29%29%2F%28%28x2-x1%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "in this problem:
\n" ); document.write( "x1 =-2; y1 = 15
\n" ); document.write( "x2 =-1; y2 =-12
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "m = \"%28%28-12-15%29%29%2F%28%28-1-%28-2%29%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "minus a minus is a plus
\n" ); document.write( "m = \"%28%28-12-15%29%29%2F%28%28-1%2B2%29%29\" = \"%28-27%29%2F1\"
\n" ); document.write( "m = -27 is the slope \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
