Find the slope of the line through the two points below.
(-3,-7) and (-8, -1)

Answer:
[tex]-\frac{6}{5}[/tex] or -1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find the slope with just 2 coordinates using the formula [tex]\frac{2y-y}{2x-x}[/tex]
So first you need to subtract the first y from the second y:
-1-(-7)=6
Then subtract the first x from the second x:
-8-(-3)=-5
Then we can make the slope:
[tex]-\frac{6}{5}[/tex] or -1.2
