Question

Find the slope Of a line that passes through (-4,7) and (-6,-4)

Answer 1

To find the slope of the line that passes through two points, you can use the following formula:

slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Here, the two points you have are (-4,7) and (-6,-4). Let's denote the first point as (x1, y1) = (-4,7) and the second point as (x2, y2) = (-6,-4).

Now plug these values into the slope formula:

m = (-4 - 7) / (-6 - (-4))
m = (-11) / (-6 + 4)
m = (-11) / (-2)
m = 11 / 2

So the slope of the line that passes through the points (-4,7) and (-6,-4) is 11/2.
