7. Given (3, 5) and (-2, 1), find the slope of the line passing through these two points.

4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

y2-y1/x2-x1 so 5-1/3-(-2)

You plug it into the equation for calculating slope:

(Y₂ - Y₁) ÷ (X₂ - X₁)

Let X₂ be 3 and Y₂ be 5.

X₁ = -2 and Y₁ = 1.

(5 - 1) ÷ (3 - (-2))

4 ÷ 5

4/5

The slope is 4/5.

Hope this helps

answer: city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.
