Question

find the slope for the following two points of (6,6) (7,-7)

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope = -13

Explanations:

The slope of a line passing through two points with coordinates (x₁ , y₁ ) and (x₂ y₂) is calculated using the formula:

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

Since the points are (6, 6) and (7, -7):

x₁ = 6, y₁ = 6, x₂ = 7, y₂ = -7

Substituting these into the formula:

$\begin{gathered} \text{Slope = }\frac{-7-6}{7-6} \\ \text{Slope = }\frac{-13}{1} \\ \text{Slope = -13} \end{gathered}$
