Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through negative 3 6 and -94

Answer 1

slope m =
`(1)/(3)`

Explanation:

Assuming you mean the points (- 3, 6 ) and (- 9, 4 )

calculate the slope m, using the slope formula

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

let (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 6 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 9, 4 )

substitute these values into the formula for m

m =
`(4-6)/(-9-(-3))` =
`(-2)/(-9+3)` =
`(-2)/(-6)` =
`(1)/(3)`
