Hey there!

The formula is:

• m = rise / run

• m = y₂ – y₁ / x₂ – x₁

• y₂ = –6

• y₁ = 0

• x₂ = 0

• x₁ = 6

• Equation: “–6 – 0 / 0 – 6”

–6 – 0 = –6 ⬅️ numerator (TOP number)

0 – 6 = –6 ⬅️ denominator (BOTTOM number)

Equation: –6 / –6

SOLVE above and you will have your ANSWER.

–6 / –6 = 1 because double negatives makes a negative.

The slope of line that passes through your given points is: 1

Answer: 1 ☑️

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
