Do you know how to find the slope of a line?

sepeario · Answer

The formula is $$\frac{ y _{2}-y _{1} }{ x _{2}-x _{1} }$$

sepeario · Answer

So can you apply that equation to the two points and find the gradient?

anonymous · Answer

Oh ya now I remember how to do this. Ya sepeario reminded me of the formula. With that formula you can find the answer. :)

anonymous · Answer

$$\frac{ 8-(-6) }{ -4-(-3) }$$$$\frac{ 14 }{ -1 }$$$$-14$$
