Question

Find the slope of the line through the pair of points. a(–9, 2), b(–4, 6)

Answer 1

The answer is 4/5=0.8
the method;
(y1-y2)/(x1-x2) which is (6-2)/(-4-(-9))
=4/5 =0.8

Answer 2

Hi there!

Step-by-step explanation:

Lesson: Slope/slope-intercept form

$Slope=\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\frac{RISE}{RUN}$

$\frac{6-2}{(-4)-(-9)}=\frac{4}{5}$

Slope is 4/5

Final answer is 4/5

I hope this helps you!

Have a nice day! :)
