General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Algebra I

  • Slope Formula: [tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (-8, -1)

Point (-12, -2)

Step 2: Find slope m

  1. Substitute:                    [tex]m=\frac{-2+1}{-12+8}[/tex]
  2. Add:                              [tex]m=\frac{-1}{-4}[/tex]
  3. Divide:                          [tex]m=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
