Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-6, 1) and (-7, 8).

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have 2 points, we can use the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1) /(x2-x1)

    = ( 8-1)/( -7 - -6)

   = ( 8-1) / ( -7+6)

   = 7/ -1

  = -7

+25 = x

step-by-step explanation:

here x is the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs are 7 and 24.   by the pythagorean theorem, 7² + 24² must equal x²:

x² = 49 + 576 = 625.   thus, x = +√625 = +25 = x
