Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through (6, 7) and (9, 3).
Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, mixed number, or
integer.

Answer 1

Slope = Y2-y1 divided by X2-X1
So it would be m= 3-7 over 9-6 = -4/3
Answer: -4/3, or rounded would be -1.333333 repeated

Answer 2

Answer:

Slope of line passing through two points

                           $(x_{1}, x_{2} ) \ and \ (y_{1}, y_{2} ) \ is\ \frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }$

Slope of the line passing through (6, 7) and (9, 3)

                               $\frac{3-7}{9-6} = \frac{-4}{3}$
