Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points? (-5.5, 6.1), (-2.5, 3.1)

Answer 1

The answer is A because slope is equal to the change in y over the change in x. Substitute in the values of x and y into the equation to find the slope.m=3.1−(6.1)/−2.5−(−5.5)

Answer 2

Hello!

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula: →  $\frac{Y^2-Y^1}{X^2-X^1}$

$\frac{3.1-6.1=-3}{-2.5-(-5.5)=-2.5+5.5=3}=\frac{-3}{3}=-1$

So therefore, the slope is -1.

Answer is -1.

*The answer must have a negative sign.*

Have a great day! :)
