Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points (2,6)(7,0)

Answer 1

Slope formula=
`(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

`(0-6)/(7-2)`

`(-6)/(5)`

So, the slope is either
`(-6)/(5)` or -1.2.

Answer 2

Hi!

To find the slope, we use this equation.

`(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)`
Insert the values

`(0 - 6)/(7-2)`
Solve

`- (6)/(5)`

The answer is
`- (6)/(5)`

Hope this helps! :)
