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

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we use the formula $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$. With our given points, we can directly plug them into the formula.

$m=\frac{9-6}{-5-(-3)} =\frac{3}{-2}$

Our slope is m=-3/2.
