Question

Find the slope of the line going through the points (-4, 3) and (-1,-6)

Answer 1

`\big \: slope = - 3`

Explanation:

`\boxed {slope = (y_(2) - y_(1))/(x_(2) - x_(1)) }`

HERE,

`slope = (( - 6) - 3)/(( - 1) - ( - 4))`

`= ( - 9)/(3)`

`= - 3`

Therefore,

`\green{\boxed { \red{ \bold{slope \: = - 3}}}}`
