Question

4. Find the slope of the line that passes through the points:
(-6,-1) and (4,1)

Answer 1

Slope: 1/5

Explanation:

To find the slope of a line when given two points, you find the change in y over the change in x.

1 - (-1) = 2 (change in y)

4 - (-6) = 10 (change in x)

2/10 simplified is 1/5.

Hope this helps :)
