Question

What is the slope of the line through (-9,6)(−9,6)left parenthesis, minus, 9, comma, 6, right parenthesis and (-6,-9)(−6,−9)left parenthesis, minus, 6, comma, minus, 9, right parenthesis?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Slope of line through (-9,6) and (-6,-9) = (-9 - 6)/(-6 - (-9)) = (-15)/(3) = -5

point-slope equation for line of slope -5 that passes through (-9,6):

y-6 = -5(x+9)

Answer 2

1/2

Explanation:

because i answered it on khan academy and it was right

Slope=

Run

Rise

Hint #22 / 3

\begin{aligned} \text{Slope}&=\dfrac{9-6}{-3-(-9)} \\\\ &=\dfrac{3}{6} \\\\ &=\dfrac{1}{2} \end{aligned}
