Question

What is the slope of the line shown below?

Answer 1

Slope of a Line Passing through two points (x₁ , y₁) and (x₂ , y₂) is given by :

$\spadesuit\; Slope(m) = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1 - x_2}$

Given Points are (-6 , 3) and (12 , 6)

here x₁ = -6 and x₂ = 12 and y₁ = 3 and y₂ = 6

$\spadesuit\; Slope(m) = \frac{3 - 6}{-6 - 12} = \frac{-3}{-18} = \frac{1}{6}$

C is the Answer
