The formula for finding the slope (m) of a line through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Plugging in the values from the given points, we have
m = (7 - 10) / (-10 - (-8)) = -3 / (-10 + 8) = -3 / (-2) = 3/2
Therefore, the slope of the line through the pair of points (-8,10) and (-10,7) is 3/2.
Find the slope of the line through the pair of points.
