Answer 1

Answer:

slopes are the same

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 5x - 6 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 5

Calculate the slope between the 2 points using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, - 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, - 16)

m = $\frac{-16+6}{2-0}$ = $\frac{-10}{2}$ = - 5

The slope of the line and the slope between the 2 points are the same
