Use the slope formula:
\[m=\frac{ y _{2}-y _{1} }{ x_{2}-x _{1} }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thanks

Did you get it amina?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no
OpenStudy (anonymous):
It's a:\[\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }\]slope

y2: 8
y1: 10
x2: -6
x1: 2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You would just use these to fill in the formula that trainwrecking gave you. Then just solve it.

Got it now?

The slope between (9,-8) and (9,-9)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how do u do this

Well the slope is a straight line. I believe that the name for a slope as a vertical line is called undefined. Let me check first.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The slope between the two points is undefined.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so the answer is undefined
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The slope between (-4,3) and (-6,3)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes. It's undefined because the slope is a vertical line. |dw:1397083890212:dw|

thank you so much what about the second one?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The slope between (-4,3) and (-6,3)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Just a sec. I'm helping someone else.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
my answer is 1/3 is that right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Let me check.

The slope is actually zero.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Any more?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
order pairs
