Question

what is the slope of the line that contains the points, (9,4) and, (1,5)?

Answer 1

Answer:

$m=-\frac{1}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is $m=\frac{rise}{run}$, or $m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$.

Plug in the coordinates into the formula.

$\frac{4-5}{1-9} = \frac{-1}{-8} =-\frac{1}{8}$

$m=-\frac{1}{8}$

The slope of the line that contains the points (9,4) and (1,5) is $-\frac{1}{8}$

Answer 2

Answer:

the answer would be m=1/8
