Is the slope increasing or decreasing?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

decreasing

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

alright, now you know the slope intercept form of a line is : \(y=mx+b\) where \(b = \sf \text{y - intercept}\)

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

and \(\sf \text{slope} = m = \dfrac{rise}{run}\)

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

\[m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\] So if we were to use \((x_1,y_1) \iff (9,0)\) and \((x_2,y_2) \iff (6,6)\) could you find me the slope of the line?

hartnn (hartnn):

you mean (0,9) right?

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

Ah yeah, typo. Sorry about that. \((x_1,y_1) \iff (0,9)\)***
