Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through (6, 9) and (1, 6). Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

Answer 1

`(3)/(5)`

Explanation:

slope =
`(y_(2)-y_1 )/(x_2-x_1)`

x1=6 x2=1

y1=9 y2=6

input into equation:

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

=
`(-3)/(-5)`

=
`(3)/(5)`
