The slope of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by the formula:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Plugging in the coordinates of the given points, we have:
slope = (5 - (-10)) / (14 - 9)
slope = (5 + 10) / (14 - 9)
slope = 15 / 5
Simplifying the fraction, we get:
slope = 3
What is the slope of the line that passes through the points left bracket, 9, comma, minus, 10, right bracket(9,−10) and left bracket, 14, comma, 5, right bracket(14,5)? Write your answer in simplest form
