Question

What is the slope of the line passing thtough the points A(7, -6) and B(-4, -3)?

Answer 1

Hello!

Step-by-step explanation:

This question it's just like a slope-intercept form.

`m=(y^2-y^1)/(x^2-x^1)`

`x^1,y^1=(7,-6)`

`x^2,y^2=(-4,-3)`

`((-3)-(-6)=3)/((-4)-7=-11)= (3)/(-11)`

Slope is 3/-11

Answer: →
`\boxed{- 3/11}`

Hope this helps!

Thank you :)

Answer 2

The formula of a slope:

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

We have the points A(7, -6) and B(-4, -3). Substitute:

`m=(-3-(-6))/(-4-7)=(3)/(-11)=\boxed{-(3)/(11)}`
