Given Coordinates: x1 = -8 y1 = -8, x2 = 0 y2 = -11
Slope Formula: m =
Substitute the given coordinates into the Slope Formula and Simplify:m =
m =
Therefore, the Slope of a Line given points (-8, -8) and (0, -11) is equal to –
Note: As a decimal number, –
Slope Formula: m =
y2 − y1/x2 − x1
Substitute the given coordinates into the Slope Formula and Simplify:m =
-11 − (-8)/0 − (-8)
m =
-11 + 8/0 + 8
m = -3/8
m = – 3/8
Therefore, the Slope of a Line given points (-8, -8) and (0, -11) is equal to –
3/8
Note: As a decimal number, –
3/8
= -0.375
