• Slope Formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (4, 9)

Point (-1, -6)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

1. Substitute [SF]:                    $m=\frac{-6-9}{-1-4}$
2. Subtract:                              $m=\frac{-15}{-5}$
3. Divide:                                 $m=3$
