Question 567187: find the slope of the line through each pair of points, if possible, and based on the slope, indicate whether the line through the points risess from left to right, falls from left to right, is horizonal, or is vertical (-4,1)and(-3,4)and (1.5,2.6)and(0.5,(3.6)

You can put this solution on YOUR website! find the slope of the line through each pair of points, if possible, and based on the slope, indicate whether the line through the points rises from left to right, falls from left to right, is horizonal, or is vertical
(-4,1)and(-3,4)
slope = (4-1)/(-3--4) = 3/1 = 3 ;;therefore rises
------------------------
(1.5,2.6)and(0.5,(3.6)
slope = (3.6-2.6)/(0.5-1.5) = 1/-1 = -1 ;; therefore falls
--------------------------
