Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points. F(–6, 8), P(–6, –5)

Answer 1

First, let's take a look at the formula to figure this out.

m = y2 - y1/x2 - x1

y2 would be -5, and y1 would be 8. -5 - 8 = -13.

x2 is -6, and x1 is also -6. -6 - -6 would be -12.

So, now we must divide -13 and -12, which results in 1 1/12.
