Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-6, -6) and (-9, -5)? Write your answer in the simplest form.

Answer 1

Answer: -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope =y1-y2/x1-x2. You first subtract the numbers for the y coordinate which is -6-(-5), and thats -1. Then you subtract the x coordinates. -6-(-9)=3. So the slope is -1/3
