Question

What is the slope of the line with points (-1, 9) and (-3, -4)?

Answer 1

Answer:

C. $\frac{13}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate slope is m=$\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

(-1, 9) is x1 and y1, (-3, -3) is x2 and y2 in this formula.

$\frac{-4 - 9}{-3 - -1}$ --- plug in values

$\frac{-13}{-2}$ --- simplify

$\frac{-13}{-2}$ = $\frac{13}{2}$
