Question

What Is the slope of the line that passes through these two points (-5,7) and (6,4)

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = - $\frac{3}{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 5, 7) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 4)

m = $\frac{4-7}{6+5}$ = $\frac{-3}{11}$ = - $\frac{3}{11}$
