6% is less than 1, so it can't be any whole number.
The answer will be narrow
Answer:
The answer to your question is m = -5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Point 1 = (1, -6)
Point 2 = (-8, 9)
Process
To find the slope just substitute the values in the formula and simplify.
Formula
slope = m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
-Identify x1, y1, x2 and y2
x1 = 1 y1 = -6 x2 = -8 y2 = 9
-Substitution
m = (9 + 6) / (-8 - 1)
-Simplification
m = 15/-9
-Result
m = -5/3
Depends on the fraction to determine your answer
