Question

-6, -6) and (-2, -2) Find the rate of change of the line that passes through the points.

Answer 1

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
