Question

Complete the point-slope equation of the line through -6 comma 5 and -3 comma -3

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points

• A (-6,5)
• B (-3,-3)

${\boxed{\sf Slope_{(m)}=\dfrac{y _2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}}$

• Substitute the values

$\qquad {:}\longrightarrow\mathbb m=\dfrac {-3-5}{-3+6}$

$\qquad {:}\longrightarrow\mathbb m=\dfrac {-8}{3}$

$\therefore\sf Slope=\dfrac {-8}{3}$
