Answer:
28/8 or 3 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the slope formula to find the slope of AB
[tex]\frac{(y_2 - y_1)}{(x_2 - x_1)}[/tex]
Here are our points:
A (-3, 12)
B (-11, -16)
Coordinates (x, y)
Now just plug in the values into the formula:
1.
[tex]\frac{12- (-16)}{-3-(-11)}[/tex]
2.
[tex]\frac{28}{8}[/tex] or [tex]3\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
