Question

Find the slope from points (9,-13), (7,-11)? That’s what my question is for my math homework.

Answer 1

Givens.

The points are (9, -13) and (7, -11).

Use the slope formula.

`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Where,

`\begin{gathered} x_1=9,x_2=7 \\ y_1=-13,y_2=-11 \end{gathered}`
`m=(-11-(-13))/(7-9)=(-11+13)/(-2)=(2)/(-2)=-1`

Therefore, the slope is -1.
