Respuesta :

m=y-y/x-x

m=5-7/-3-1

m=-2/-4

m=1/2

A)1/2

Answer:

Find out the what is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-3, 5) and (1, 7) .

To prove

Formula for slope

[tex]m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}[/tex]

The points are (-3, 5) and (1, 7) .

Put in the formula

[tex]m = \frac{7 - 5}{1 - (-3)}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{2}{1 + 3}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{2}{4}[/tex]

Simplify the above

[tex]m = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Option (A) is correct .
