By definition, the slope or gradient of a line describes its steepness, incline, or grade.

Where

m — slope

θ — angle of incline

If the 2 Points are Known

Result

Slope (m) =  

ΔY

ΔX

=  

-1

5

=-0.2

θ =  

arctan(ΔY) + 360°

ΔX

=348.69006752598°

ΔX = 5 – -5 = 10

ΔY = -3 – -1 = -2

Distance (d) = √ΔX2 + ΔY2 = √104 = 10.198039027186

Equation of the line:

y = -0.2x – 2

or

y =  

-1x

5

– -2

When x=0, y = -2

When y=0, x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:    This is the picture, I graphed it

Center: (0, 0)

Angle: 0 rad

Opacity: 1

Width: 10

Height: 6.8

it’s supposed to be -4+45=41
