Question

find the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points (6.5, 10.5) and (–9.5, 7)

Answer 1

i dont get what im doing wrong i followed the last steps you did

Answer 2

(7 - 10.5) = -2.5
-9.5 - 6.5 = 16

-2.5 / 16 = -5 / 32
slope = -5/32

Use the formula (Y2 - Y1) / (X2 - X1)
Remember, two negatives make a posi.tive
