Question

Find the slope of each line.

Line A: (6,4) & (-3,-1)

Line B: (-6,0) & (3,5)


a) line a= 5/9 line b= 5/9

b) line a= 9/5 line b= 9/5

c) line a= -5/9 line b= -5/9

d) line a= -9/5 line b= -9/5

Answer 1

Answer:

a) line a= 5/9 line b= 5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula:

m =    y2 - y1  

         x2 - x1

Plug-in the known values for each line:

Line A:     -1 - 4 = -5    =  5  

               -3 - 6      -9         9

Line B:     5 - 0  =  5  

               3 - (-6) =   9
