Question

Calculate the slope between the points: (4, -9) and (5, 1)

a
m=10
b
m=1/10
с
m=-10
d
m=-1/10

Answer 1

The answer is A- m=10

Explanation:

The way to find slope is known as "Rise over Run" meaning the increase of Y over the increase of X. The increase of Y is 10 because 1 - (-9) = 10. The increase of X is 1 because 5 - 4 = 1. 10 over 1, or 10 / 1, equals 10.
