Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (6, -10)(6,−10) and (3, -13) ?(3,−13)? Write your answer in simplest form. ????????????????
help me please.

Answer 1

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

(x1, y1) = (6, -10)

(x2, y2) = (3, -13)

Slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

= (-13-(-10)) / (3-6)

= (-13+10) / (-3)

= (-3) / (-3)

= 1

Answer 2

Modified question:

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (6,−10) and (3, -13)? Write your answer in the simplest form.

Answer:

The slope of the line passing through the points (6, -10) and (3, -13) is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The two points through which line L passes are:

(x1, y1) = (6, -10)

(x2, y2) = (3, -13)

To find,

The slope of the line L (m).

Concept,

If a line L passes through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), then the slope of the line (m) is given by :

$m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$...(1)

Calculation,

Here x1 = 6, x2 = 3 and y1 = -10, y2 = -13

We substitute in equation (1) we get :

$m = \frac{-13-(-10)}{3-6}$

m = -3/-3

m = 1

Therefore, the slope of the line passing through the points (6, -10) and (3, -13) is 1.
