Question

Find the slope of the line between (-3,6)and (-5,9)

Answer 1

Your slope will be -3/2x

Answer 2

`-(3)/(2)`

Explanation:

you have the points:

(-3,6) -> where
`x_(1)=-3,y_(1)=6`

and

`(-5,9)` -> where
`x_(2)=-5,y_(2)=9`

and then we use the equation for the slope
`m`:

`m=(y_(2)-y_(1))/(x_(2)-x_(1))`

substituting values:

`m=(9-6)/(-5-(-3))=(3)/(-5+3)=(3)/(-2)=`

the slope between the points is -3/2
