Find the slope of a line joining the given points - 1 3 , 1 2 and 2 7 , 3 7

Slope of line passing through two points ( x 1 , y 1 ) and ( x 2 , y 2 ) is given by m = y 2 - y 1 x 2 - x 1 Since the line passes through - 1 3 , 1 2 and 2 7 , 3 7 Slope of the line ⇒ 3 7 - 1 2 2 7 + 1 3 = 6 - 7 14 6 + 7 21 ⇒ - 1 14 × 21 13 = - 3 26 Thus, the slope of the line is - 3 26
