Question

What is the slope that passes through (-9,-8) and (-15,-16)

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope = $\frac{4}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

(-9, -8)  & (-15 , -16)

Slope = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

          $= \frac{-16-[-8]}{-15-[-9]}\\\\= \frac{-16+8}{-15+9}\\\\= \frac{-8}{-6}\\\\= \frac{4}{3}$
