Question

Find the slope of the line that passes through (5, 13) and (9, 10).
Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope between (5, 13) and (9, 10) is:

• $m=-\frac{3}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points

• (5, 13)
• (9, 10)

Finding the slope between (5, 13) and (9, 10)

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m=\frac{10-13}{9-5}$

$m=-\frac{3}{4}$

Therefore, the slope between (5, 13) and (9, 10) is:

• $m=-\frac{3}{4}$
