Bert and Ernie are planning to go on a tiger hunt. They will need to climb a mountain during their trip. They currently can only read a map and need help calculating the slope. The slope of the mountain is represented by the two points (–2, –1) and (3, 5). What is the slope?

6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points:

(–2, –1) and (3, 5)

x1 = - 2 ; y1 = - 1 ; x2 = 3 ; y2 = 5

Slope is the change in y divided change in x

Slope = change in y / change in x

Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Slope = (5 - (-1)) / (3 - (-2))

Slope = (5 + 1) / 3 +2

Slope = 6 / 5

47
