Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points? (1, 7), (10, 1)

Answer 1

Slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(x,y)
x1=1
y1=7
x2=10
y2=1

slope=(1-7)/(10-1)=-6/9=-2/3
answer is A

Answer 2

Hello!

Answer:

A. -2/3

*The answer must have a fraction.*

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: $\frac{Y^2-Y^1}{X^2-X^1}=\frac{rise}{run}$

$\frac{1-7=-6}{10-1=9}=\frac{-6}{9}=\frac{-6/3}{9/3}=\frac{-2}{3}$

Slope is -2/3

Answer: -2/3

Hope this helps!

Thanks!
