Question

Find the slope through each pair of two points. Report answers in simplest form.

(-3,6) and (-5,9)
m =

Answer 1

Answer: m=-3/2

Explanation:

To find the slope, we use the formula
`m=(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )`. With our given points, we can directly plug them into the formula.

`m=(9-6)/(-5-(-3)) =(3)/(-2)`

Our slope is m=-3/2.
