Question

find the slope of the line containing the given points. (if an answer is undefined, enter undefined.)

\\(p_1(7, -5)\\), \\(p_2(1, 7)\\)

Explanation:

Identify the coordinates of the given points

$$ P_1(x_1, y_1) = (7, -5),\quad P_2(x_2, y_2) = (1, 7) $$

Calculate the coordinate differences

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Compute the slope

$$ m = \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} = \frac{12}{-6} = -2 $$

Answer:

Find the slope of the line containing the given points. (If an answer is undefined, enter UNDEFINED.)
