Answer:

-9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is equal to the change in y, over the change in x, or rise over run.

x, is the run

y, is the rise

You can substitute the coordinate numbers on the equation to find the slope. which is y2-y1/x2-x1

m= 17-(8)

——

2-(6)

Your answer will be -9/4 (it doesn’t matter where the negative goes, and there’s a negative because 2-6= -4)

Hope this helps.
