Let's find the slope :

taking :

  • y_2 = 6

  • y_1 = 8

  • x_2 = 4

  • x_1 =  - 2

now, we know the formula to find the slope, that is :

  • \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 -x_1 }

  • \dfrac{6 - 8}{4 - ( - 2)}

  • \dfrac{ - 2}{ 6}

  • - \dfrac{ 1}{3}

Answer:

\boxed {-\frac{1}{3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\boxed {\sf{Slope}=\cfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}

\sf \left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-2,\:8\right)

\sf \left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(4,\:6\right)

__________________

\sf slope \:(m)=\cfrac{6-8}{4-\left(-2\right)}

\boxed {\sf Subtract \:the \:numbers:-}

\sf Slope\:(m)=-\cfrac{1}{3}

Answer:

(x^{2}-9)(x^{2} -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find what adds to _ and multiples to_

It needs to multiple to the 'c' term or 9

It needs to add to the 'b' term or -10

Step 2: Find the numbers

We know -9 and -1 make 10 and multiple to 9

-9 x -1 = 9

-9 + (-1) + -10

Step 3: Write equation in form a(x-r)(x-s)

a = 1

r = -9

s = -1

Plug in the equation to get the factored form of the equation:

(x^{2}-9)(x^{2} -1)

Therefore the factored form of the equation is (x^{2}-9)(x^{2} -1)
