Question

Line AB contains points A (1, 2) and B (-2, 6). What is the slope of line AB?

Answer 1

slope=(6-2)/(-2-1)

= -(4/3)

Answer 2

Answer:

The slope is -4/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula: $\displaystyle \frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}$

$\displaystyle \frac{6-2}{(-2)-1}=\frac{4}{-3}=-\frac{4}{3}$

Therefore, the slope is -4/3. -4/3 is the correct answer.
