A. 5/6
B. 6/5
C. -5/6
D. -6/5

Answer 1

slope has a formula to it ^.^

Answer 2

\[\frac{y_1-y_1}{x_1 - x_2}\]

Answer 3

actually a typo
The slope of the line through points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by :
\(\huge m=\frac{y_1-y_2}{x_1-x_2}\)
now,just put the values and find m.

Answer 4

there somebody beat me to it :(

Answer 5

Always remember to subtract the ys which go on the numerator.
