Find the slope of the line that passes through (7, 8) and (5, 5).

The slope of the line that passes through the point is 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the line that passes through  (7, 8) and (5, 5)., we just need to use the formula below;

Slope = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

The points given are;  (7, 8) and (5, 5)

x₁ = 7    y₁=8       x₂= 5          y₂=5

We can now proceed to insert the values in the formula;

Slope = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

            = 5 - 8 / 5 -  7

           = -3/-2

          = 3/2

slope = 3/2

The slope of the line that passes through the point is 3/2

-4

step-by-step explanation:

(-4+8)=-(4-8)=-8+4=-4
