Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (1, 7) and (3, 3).

Slope of the line that passes through the points (1, 7) and (3, 3) = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question two co-ordinates,

(1, 7)

(3, 3)

here x1 = 1

        x2 = 3

        y1 = 7

        y2 = 3

Formula to use

m =

   =

   = -4/2

  = -2

The slope of given line is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

Let (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) be the two points in a line, then the slope of the line is given by,

slope, m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

To find the slope of given line

Here (x₁, y₁) = (1, 7) and (x₂, y₂) = (3,3)

Slope m =  (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (3 - 7)/(3 - 1)

= -4/2 = -2

Therefore the slope of given line is -2
