Find the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points.
(5.3, –2.5), (7.3, –12.5)
–5
0.2
–0.2
The slope of the line passing through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) can be found using the formula:
Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Given the points (5.3, -2.5) and (7.3, -12.5), we can plug the values into the formula:
Slope = (-12.5 - (-2.5)) / (7.3 - 5.3)
Slope = (-12.5 + 2.5) / 2
Slope = -10 / 2
Slope = -5
Therefore, the slope of the line passing through the points (5.3, -2.5) and (7.3, -12.5) is -5.
