Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through (-34, 72) and (31, 27).

Answer 1

the answer i got is -9/13

Answer 2

.

$(-34, 72) and (31, 27) \\x1 = - 34 \\ y1 = 72 \\ x2 = 31 \\ y2 = 27$

$m \: = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} \\ m \: = \frac{27 - 72}{31 - ( - 34)} \\ m \: = \frac{ - 45}{65}$

$m \: = \frac{ - 9}{13}$
