Question

What’s the slope of (3,1200)(6,800)

Answer 1

Your slope is -133 1/3

Explanation:

slope intercept form:

slope (m) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Let:

(x₁ , y₁) = (3 , 1200)

(x₂ , y₂) = (6 , 800)

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

m = (800 - 1200)/(6 - 3)

Simplify. Remember to follow PEMDAS. First solve the parenthesis, then divide:

m = (-400)/(3)

m = ~-133 1/3

Your slope is -133 1/3.
