Question

what is slope of a line that passes through (1,4) (-2,6) awarding more points

Answer 1

Answer:

-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(6-4)/(-2-1)=2/-3=-2/3

Answer 2

Answer:

$\large\boxed{m=-\dfrac{2}{3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (1, 4) and (-2, 6).

Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{6-4}{-2-1}=\dfrac{2}{-3}=-\dfrac{2}{3}}$
