What is the slope of the line that passes through
the points (8, 12) and (-10, 4)?

complete step by step.

Option B

ANSWER:  

The slope of the required line is

SOLUTION:

Given, two points are (8, 12) and (-10, -4).

We need to find the slope of a line that passes through the given two points.

We know that, formula for slope of a line when two points on it are given is

where, m is the slope of required line

 are x, y co-ordinates of first point.

are x, y co-ordinates of second point.

Here, in our problem

Hence the slope of the required line is

answer: 298143

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is
