Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points A(-6, 2) and B(5, -1).

Answer 1

Answer:

-3/11

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line is given by

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (-1-2)/(5--6)

   = -3/(5+6)

   = -3/11

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{-3}{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You use the formula to solve:

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m =\frac{-1-2}{5+6}\\m = \frac{-3}{11}$
