Find the Slope f(7)=-1 , g(3)=4

Problem

ƒ(7)=−1,g(3)=4

Solution

1. Identify the coordinates of the two points provided by the function values.

2. Assign variables to the coordinates where ((x_1),(y_1))=(7,−1) and ((x_2),(y_2))=(3,4)

3. Apply the slope formula which is the change in y divided by the change in x

m=((y_2)−(y_1))/((x_2)−(x_1))

4. Substitute the values into the formula.

m=(4−(−1))/(3−7)

5. Simplify the numerator by performing the addition.

m=5/(3−7)

6. Simplify the denominator by performing the subtraction.

m=5/(−4)

Final Answer

m=−5/4
