Find the slope of the line that passes through (3, 11) and (7, 6).

The slope of the given line is

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The Two points are (3,11) and (7,6)

To Find:

The slope of the line passes though the points

Formula to be used:

m =

Solution:

Let "m" be the slope of the points () and () respectively,

Where = 3, = 7 , = 11 , = 6

Substituting all the above values in the slope formula,we get

m= =

The slope m =

Hence, the slope of the line is

hope this !

step-by-step explanation:

d = distance between moon and sun, which in this problem is the hypotenuse of a right triangle.  

the distance y is the side opposite to angle x in the right triangle.   use the definition of the sine function from basic trigonometry.

sin(x) = y/d ⇒

d = y/sin(x)
