Question

The slope of line  is ______.

  1. fraction numerator negative 6 over denominator 7 end fraction
  2. 1 fifth
  3. 1 third
  4. 11 over 12

hintHint:

In this question, we have to find the slope of line m whose co-ordinates are (5,7) and (-7,-4) . So, by using the formula fraction numerator y subscript 2 minus y subscript 1 over denominator x subscript 2 minus x subscript 1 end fraction.

The correct answer is: 11 over 12


    co-ordinates of line m is A(5,7) and B(-7,-4)
    slope of m
    equals fraction numerator y subscript 2 minus y subscript 1 over denominator x subscript 2 minus x subscript 1 end fraction
equals fraction numerator negative 4 minus 7 over denominator negative 7 minus 5 end fraction
equals fraction numerator negative 11 over denominator negative 12 end fraction
equals 11 over 12
    Hence, required slope is 11 over 12
