P(0, -5); slope =.
This exercise provides a geometric method of justifying the fact that you can use any two points on a line to determine the slope of the line. Horizontal and vertical segments have been drawn as shown. Supply the reason for each step.
Key steps of proof:
5. The slope of LN equals and the slope of DJ equals
6. Slope of LN equals to slope of DJ.
Use the distance formula to find the distance between the two points.
(-8, 6) and (0, 0)
Use the distance formula to find the distance between the two points.
A line with slope passes through points (7, -4) and (?, 6).
