Question

What is the slope of a line that contains the points (-6 , 1) and (4 , -4)?

Answer 1

Answer:

$y =-\frac{1}{2} x-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question we use the slope formula: $m = (y_{1} - y_{2})/(x_{1}-x_{2})$

chug and plug: m = (1 - (-4))/(-6-4)

m = -0.5 or $-\frac{1}{2}$
