Explain how find the Slope for a line passing through (-2, 6) and (4.-3)


What is the slope passing through (-2-,6) and (4.-3)

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]-1\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is calculated using [tex]\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1} }[/tex].

We'll just substitute in our points.

[tex]\frac{-3-6}{4-(-2)}[/tex]

Simplify.

[tex]\frac{-9}{6}[/tex]

Simplify.....

[tex]-1\frac{3}{6}[/tex]

More...

[tex]-1\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

And we're done!
