Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (6, 2) and (4, 10)?

Answer 1

Answer:

A. -4 (should have negative sign.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula:

$\sf \dfrac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}$

y2=10

y1=2

x2=4

x1=6

Solve.

$\dfrac{10-2}{4-6}$

10-2=8

4-6=(-2)

Divide.

8÷(-2)=-4

So, the correct answer is -4.

Answer 2

your answer would be -4. I hope this helped
