What is the slope of the line passing through the following points: #(-7,11), (14,-6) #? Algebra Graphs of Linear Equations and Functions Slope 1 Answer Alan P. Dec 24, 2015 Slope #= (-17/21)# Explanation: Slope #(Delta y)/(Delta x) = (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) = (-6-11)/(14-(-7)) = -17/21# Answer link Related questions What is Slope? How can slope be undefined?
