Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through (-24, 6) and (9, 87). Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer. ​

Answer 1

Ok so I see what your doing here. So your two numbers you need to make (-24,6) put 1 as x1 and x2 then (9,87) do the same thing but put y1 over and y2 over 87.


So you’d do 6-87 which gives you -81/30 Which could reduce down to -27/10 hope that helps



y=mx+b

Answer 2

Answer: The equation of a straight line is:

y = mx + b

m is the slope, and that is -2.
