- Slope Formula: [tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
Point (18, 0)
Point (10, -5)
Step 2: Find slope m
Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m
- Substitute [SF]: [tex]m=\frac{-5-0}{10-18}[/tex]
- Subtract: [tex]m=\frac{-5}{-8}[/tex]
- Simplify: [tex]m=\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
