Question

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through points (1, 9) and (4, 3). What is the slope of a line that contains the points (1, 9) and (4, 3)? The slope of the line is .

Answer 1

Answer:

slope is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

the coordinate is (1, 9) and (4, 3)

x1=1

y1=9

x2=4

y2=3

the expression for the slope of a line is given as

$slope=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

substitute our data into the expression we have

$slope=\frac{3-9}{`4-11}\\\\slope= \frac{-6}{3} \\\\slope=-2$

The slope of the line is -2

Answer 2

Answer:

-2 on edge
