Given:

(7,-6) & (-9,-3)

Asked: Find the slope of the line.

Solution:

To find the slope of the line, we will need the formula for the slope which is:


\begin{gathered} \text{Slope}=\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} \\ m=(\Delta y)/(\Delta x) \\ m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) \end{gathered}

Let's assign which of
