Question

What is the slope of the line passing through the given points.
(-3,2), (6,-1)

Answer 1

Slope (m) =
`(-1)/(3)` = -0.33333333...

Explanation:

Slope (m) = ΔY -1

ΔX 3

(m)= -1/3

Answer 2

-1/3

Explanation:

Since we are given two points, we can find the slope using

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= ( -1-2)/( 6- -3)

= ( -1-2) /( 6+3)

= -3/9

= -1/3
