Question

if two points on a line are (4,6) and B (8,-8) the rise is..? and the run is..? so the slope of the line is ...?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

`rise=y_2-y_1\\\\run=x_2-x_1\\\\slope=(rise)/(run)`\\\\\text{We have}\ (4,\ 6),\ (8,\ -8).\ \text{Substitute:}\\\\rise=-8-6=-14\\\\run=8-4=4\\\\slope=(-14)/(4)=-(7)/(2)`
