Question

What is the slope of the line through (-9,6) and (-3,9)?

Answer 1

Hi!

Explanation:

`Slope=(Y_2-Y_1)/(X_2-X_1)=(RISE)/(RUN)`

`(9-6)/((-3)-(-9))=(3)/(6)=(3/3)/(6/3)=(1)/(2)`

Slope is 1/2.

Answer is 1/2.

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Answer 2

1/2

Explanation:

To find the slope of a line through 2 point we use the formula

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

= (9-6)/(-3--9)

= 3 /(-3+9)

= 3 /6

= 1/2
