Rate of change of line that passes through the given points is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of vertical and horiontal changes is called the rate of change of a line. It is called slope which is denoted by m.

The formula for slope when (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the points on line is given by:

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\$

Given

(x1,y1) = (-6,-6)

(x2,y2) = (-2,-2)

Putting the values in the formula

$m = \frac{-2-(-6)}{-2-(-6)}\\=\frac{-2+6}{-2+6}\\=\frac{4}{4}\\= 1$

Rate of change of line that passes through the given points is 1

I'm pretty sure it would be x - y + 1 = 0 because if you plug in one of the coordinates into each equation, this is the only one that works.

y - x + 1 = 0
2 - 1 + 1 = 0
2 = 0 not correct

x - y + 1 = 0
1 - 2 + 1 = 0
0 = 0 correct

-x - y + 1 = 0
-1 - 2 + 1 = 0
-2 = 0 not correct

Put them into y=mx+b
y=1/3x -1
y=2/3x-4
Graph them. Where they touch is your answer. No touch? No solution. Same line? Infinite solutions.
Second set: Same thing.
Solution to first set is (9,2)
