Question

Find the slope of the line through the pair of points. (4, -6) and (-7,6)

Answer 1

hello

to find the slope through the pair of points, we can simply use the formula and substitute the values of the point.

(4, -6) and (-7,6)

x1 = 4

y1 = -6

x2 = -7

y2 = 6

`\begin{gathered} \text{slope = }(\differentialDy y)/(dx)_{} \\ \text{slope}=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) \\ \text{slope}=(6-(-6))/(-7-4) \\ \text{slope}=(6+6)/(-11) \\ \text{slope}=-(12)/(11) \end{gathered}`

the slope = -(12/11)
