The slope of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by the formula:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Using the coordinates (1, 7) and (10, 1):
slope = (1 - 7) / (10 - 1)
slope = -6 / 9
slope = -2/3
So, the slope of the line is -2/3.
What is the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points (1, 7) and (10, 1)? (1 point)
