What is the slope of (7,9.5) (2,7)

m=0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the slope between your two points.

(7,9.5);(2,7)

(x1,y1)=(7,9.5)

(x2,y2)=(2,7)

Use the slope formula:

m=Let's find the slope between your two points.

(7,9.5);(2,7)

(x1,y1)=(7,9.5)

(x2,y2)=(2,7)

Use the slope formula:

y2−y1/y2−y1

7−9.5/2-7

2.5/-5  m=0.5

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

{x = -1/2 ,   y = -1

step-by-step explanation:

solve the following system:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

in the first equation, look to solve for y:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

subtract 2 x from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

substitute y = -2 x - 2 into the second equation:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = -2

10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = (6 x + 6) + 10 x = 16 x + 6:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

in the second equation, look to solve for x:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

subtract 6 from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x = -8

divide both sides by 16:

{y = -2 x - 2

{x = -1/2

substitute x = -1/2 into the first equation:

{y = -1

{x = -1/2
