Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points (-10,14) and(-6,12)

Answer 1

In this question, you're finding the slope with the given points.

To find slope, you would use this equation:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Plug in the coordinates and solve:

(12 - 14) / (-6 - ( -10))

-2 / (-6 + 10)

-2 / 4

simplify:

-1/2

The slope of the line would be -1/2

Answer:

-1/2
