Question

Find the slope of the line through each pair of points (6, 10) , (-1, 10)

Answer 1

-7

Explanation:

Slope is rise/run or change in y over change in x.

To calculate rise we subtract y2 from y1.

-1 - 6 = -7

RUN: -7

To calculate run we subtract x2 from x1.

10 - 10 = 0

RISE: 0

Slope is -7/0
