Answer:

  • -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The billiard cue is 15 cm away from the table

  • This refers to coordinates of (15, 0)

The billiard cue touches the table at a point 60 cm off the ground

  • This refers to coordinates of (0, 60)

The slope is as per slope formula;

  • m = (60 - 0)/(0-15) = 60/ -15 = -4

Thea answer is -4

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

The foot of the billiard cue is 15 cm away from the table can be represented by the point (15, 0).

The top of the billiard cue touches the table at a point 60 cm off the ground can be represented by the point (0, 60)

The slope formula can be solve with the formula [ y2-y1/x2-x1 ]

60-0/0-15

60/-15

-4

Best of Luck!
