Question

The slope of the given line is ______.

  1. 7 over 12
  2. 1 fourth
  3. 3 over 2
  4. fraction numerator negative 7 over denominator 12 end fraction

hintHint:

To find the slope of the given line when coordinates are given we will the formula fraction numerator y subscript 2 minus y subscript 1 over denominator x subscript 2 minus x subscript 1 end fraction, where the two points are left parenthesis x subscript 1 comma space y subscript 1 right parenthesis space a n d space left parenthesis x subscript 2 comma space y subscript 2 right parenthesis.

The correct answer is: fraction numerator negative 7 over denominator 12 end fraction


    the slope of the given line= fraction numerator y subscript 2 minus y subscript 1 over denominator x subscript 2 minus x subscript 1 end fraction
    equals fraction numerator negative 3 minus 4 over denominator 7 minus left parenthesis negative 5 right parenthesis end fraction
equals fraction numerator negative 7 over denominator 12 end fraction

    If l || m then find the measures of x and y?


    In this question we have to find x and y given that l is parallel to m and t is the transversal. First to find x we can use linear pair as we know that the sum of angles which are in linear pair is 180 deg. Next to find y we can use the theorem alternate exterior angles are equal.
