Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through (6, 7) and (2, 16). Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

Answer 1

Answer:

m = -9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Simply plug in the coordinates into the slope formula:

m = (16 - 7)/(2 - 6)

m = 9/-4

m = -9/4
