Question

How do you find the slope of (-4,-5),(-9,1)?

Answer 1

Slope the line passing through (−4,-5) and (−9,1) is `-6/5`

Explanation:

Slope of a line joining `(x_1,y_1)` and `(x_2,y_2)` is given by

`(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Hence, slope the line passing through (−4,-5) and (−9,1) is `(1-(-5))/(-9-(-4))=(1+5)/(-9+4)=6/(-5)=-6/5`.
