Question

What is the slope of the line passing through points A and B as shown on the graph below. GRAPH PLOTS; A(−3,8) and B(3,6). Don´t just tell me the answer, please explain thoroughly.

Answer 1

(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (6-8)/(3- -3) = -2/6=-1/3

Answer 2

A(x1,y1), B(x2,y2)

Answer 3

get the gradient of the slope as mrj has done
8-6/-3-3
2/-6
-1/3

Answer 4

thanks
