Question

Find the slope of the line through the point. p1 =(7, - 6). p2 = ( - 9, - 3)

Answer 1

Given:

(7,-6) & (-9,-3)

Asked: Find the slope of the line.

Solution:

To find the slope of the line, we will need the formula for the slope which is:

$\begin{gathered} \text{Slope}=\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} \\ m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \\ m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \end{gathered}$

Let's assign which of
