QuestionWhat inputs are needed for the slope formula using points (-1,-2) and (3,0)? Is it x1x_1, y1y_1, x2x_2, y2y_2?

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We have two points (-1,-) and (3,0) . The points are identified as follows (-1,-) corresponds to (x1,y1)(x1, y1) and (3,0) corresponds to (x,y)(x, y)3. The slope formula is given by m=yy1xx1m=\frac{y-y1}{x-x1}

STEP 2

We are given a partially filled slope formulam=02[?]m=\frac{0--2}{-[?]}

STEP 3

From the slope formula, we know that the denominator should be x2x1x2-x1. In the given formula, x2x2 is already filled in as3. So, the missing value should be x1x1.

STEP 4

Looking at our points, we see that x1x1 is -1.
So, the answer is A. -1.
