Question

Please help me on this question. ( = ___ ) is at the bottom

Answer 1

Given

$\begin{gathered} \text{First point (1,9)} \\ \text{second point (4,3)} \end{gathered}$

Formula

$\begin{gathered} \text{Slope (M)=}\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\ \end{gathered}$

Given

$\begin{gathered} x_1=1 \\ x_2=\text{ 4} \\ y_1=9 \\ y_2=3 \end{gathered}$$\text{Slope (M)=}\frac{3-9}{4-1}$$\text{Slope (M)=}\frac{3-9}{4-1}=-\frac{6}{3}=-\frac{2}{1}$

The final answer

$-2$
