- Slope Formula: [tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
Point (2, 6)
Point (1, 9)
Step 2: Find slope m
- Substitute: [tex]m=\frac{9-6}{1-2}[/tex]
- Subtract: [tex]m=\frac{3}{-1}[/tex]
- Divide: [tex]m=-3[/tex]
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for the slope is the change in y/ the change x.
In order to find the change in y we have to subtract the second y (9) by the first y(6) and do the same for x.
That will be (9 - 6)/(1 - 2) = 3/-1 = -3
Slope is -3
