Question

#2 Find the slope given the points (6,-12) and (15,-3)*

Answer 1

Greetings :)

To find slope of two points we will need to use this equation:
`(y^2-y^1)/(x^2-x^1)`

`x^1`
`x^2`
`y^1`
`y^2`

( 6 , -12 ) ( 15 , -3 )

Now let's replace the equation with the numbers. (it will be a fraction).

`(-3-(-12))/(15-12)` =
`(9)/(9)`

The equation equals 9 over 9, which also equals 1.

The slope of the line is 1.
