Answers
GPT 3.5
To find the slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), you can use the formula:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Using the points (-2, -6) and (-11, -7), we can plug in the values:
slope = (-7 - (-6)) / (-11 - (-2))
= (-7 + 6) / (-11 + 2)
= -1 / -9
= 1/9
Therefore, the slope between the points (-2, -6) and (-11, -7) is 1/9.
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Using the points (-2, -6) and (-11, -7), we can plug in the values:
slope = (-7 - (-6)) / (-11 - (-2))
= (-7 + 6) / (-11 + 2)
= -1 / -9
= 1/9
Therefore, the slope between the points (-2, -6) and (-11, -7) is 1/9.
