The slope of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) can be found using the formula:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
In this case, the two points are (1,3) and (-4,-3), so we can plug these values into the formula:
slope = (-3 - 3) / (-4 - 1)
slope = (-6) / (-5)
slope = 6/5
Therefore, the slope of the line shown on the graph is 6/5.
Find the slope of the line shown on the graph to the right. (1,3) and (-4,-3)
