Question

What is the slope of this line?

Answer 1

Answer:

M=6/7 (M= six over seven)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf{-3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this problem by using the slope formula to find the slope of the line.

Slope formula:

$\sf{\dfrac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\dfrac{RISE}{RUN}}$

y2=(-2)

y1=10

x2=(-5)

x1=(-9)

Rewrite the problem down and then solve it.

$\sf{\dfrac{(-2)-10}{(-5)-(-9)} }=\dfrac{-2-10}{-5+9}=\dfrac{-12}{4}$

Divide by 4 as well.

$\sf{\dfrac{-12\div4}{4\div4}=\dfrac{-3}{1}=\boxed{\sf{-3}}}$

Therefore, the slope is -3.
