Question

Find the slope of the line containing the following points by using the slope-formula, below: (-3, 6) (5, -9)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(x₁, y₁) = (-3 , 6)   &

(x₂ , y₂) = ( 5 , -9)

$Slope =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

         $=\dfrac{-9-6}{5-[-3]}\\\\\\=\dfrac{-15}{5+3}\\\\\\=\dfrac{-15}{8}$
