Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (−2/3, 3/4) and (5/6, −1/2).

Answer 1

`-(5)/(6)`

Explanation:

Use the slope formula :
`(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)`

-1/2 is y2, 3/4 is y1, 5/6 is x2, and -2/3 is x1.

`(-1/2-3/4)/(5/6-(-2/3))`

`(-5/4)/(5/6+2/3)`

`(-5/4)/(9/6)`

`(-5)/(4)` ÷
`(9)/(6)`

`-(5)/(4)` •
`(6)/(9)`

`-(5)/(2)` •
`(3)/(9)`

`-(15)/(18)`

`-(5)/(6)`
