Question 122756: I need help trying to solve this problem..you are trying to find the slope.
(1/12, 1/8) (3/7, 9/17)..THANKS! Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! find the slope.
(1/12, 1/8) (3/7, 9/17)
----------
slope = [(9/17)-(1/8)]/[(3/7)-(1/12)]
= [(72-17)/136]/[(36-7)/84]
= [55/136]/[29/84]
= [55/136]
= 1155/986 or 1.1714
