GCSE maths question

Diddums · 14 Mar 2016 at 20:16

I seem to be struggling again. I'm tired and overthinking this, every time I look at this I get a different answer depending on where I put the numbers in the formula, so I turn to you GD, put me out of my misery!

Find the gradient of the line that passes through points (-4, 3) and (2, -1).

So far I've come up with 1.5, -1.5 and 0.666

Help!

Cheers

Exactly. We're going back almost 20 years since I did this, and I haven't had time to do it properly what with working 7 days a week almost every single week. FFS.

At least learning this time around I'm doing my test the night before it's due. Consistency is key I suppose

Thanks for the help guys, much appreciated.

Right, let's see how many of you still know this stuff

I've come to an answer and so has a colleague and we're both saying the other is wrong, so let's see if GD can resolve this!

Go on, give it your best shot.

I missed Touch's answer, and I haven't got the results back yet. I'm just trying to see what the outcome will be as this one had me scratching my head for bloody ages

I've got a beer riding on this too!

I had to get an extension due to working seven days a week for almost ever. Hope you did well!

You guys want another headscratcher?

This one had me going for a bit. It's quite simple when you suss it out but it took me bloody ages to get them right
