Question

Find the slope, if it exists, of the line containing the pairs of points. (5,6) and (8,-10)

The slope m= (simplify the answer. Type an interger or a fraction)
or
the slope is undefined

Answer 1

@semperfiwifey68 slope of a line passing through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by
\[m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}\]
here
(x1, y1)=(5, 6)
(x2, y2)=(8, -10)
Can you do it ?
