Answer:

47/10x

**Do not leave your answer as a decimal, slope is usually in fraction form**

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope Formula: [tex]\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} / \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex] In this formula, subtract the 1st coordinate from the second. So, the 2nd y coordinate goes first, place a "minus" sign, and then the 2nd y-coordinate. This is the same for the x coordinates.

Finding the Answer: To find the answer, we just plug the numbers correctly into the equation, just as I explained above. We would do 55-8 first, which is 47, and then 12-2 which is 10.

Combined, the answer is 47/10x. You always place an x after the slope, which can be used to plug in other numbers. The answer cannot be simplified anymore, so this is simplfied.
