Slope of the line through the points (-5, 2) and (6, 7)



m+=+%28y%5B2%5D+-+y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D+-+x%5B1%5D%29


m+=+%28y%5B2%5D+-+y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D+-+%28x%5B1%5D%29%29


m+=+%287+-+2%29%2F%286+-+%28-5%29%29


m+=+%287+-+2%29%2F%286+%2B+5%29


m+=+%285%29%2F%2811%29


Answer: Slope is m+=+5%2F11
