Question

What is the slope of the line that passes (12,6) and (-6,3)

Answer 1

⅙

Explanation:

The slope of the line that passes (12,6) and (-6,3) is ⅙.

Answer 2

The slope is 1/6.

Explanation:

Slope formula:

`\displaystyle (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

`\displaystyle (3-6)/((-6)-12)=(-3)/(-18)=(-3/3)/(-18/3)=(-1/1)/(-6/1)= (-1)/(-6)=(1)/(6)`

The slope is 1/6 is the correct answer.
