Hi student, let me help you out! :)

We are asked to find the slope of

[tex]\star\mathrm{(6,1)}\star[/tex]

[tex]\star\mathrm{(-3,8)}\star[/tex]

[tex]\triangle~\fbox{\bf{KEY:}}[/tex]

  • The slope formula is a lifesaver when it comes to finding the slope of two points! :)

Here's the formula:

[tex]\star\boxed{\mathrm{\cfrac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}}}\star[/tex]

Where:

[tex]\star[/tex] y2 and y1 are y-coordinates

[tex]\star[/tex] x2 and x1 are x-coordinates

So substitute the values accordingly:

[tex]\star\mathrm{\cfrac{8-1}{-3-6}}[/tex]

Simplify!

[tex]\star\mathrm{\cfrac{7}{-9}}[/tex]

Which is the same thing as...

[tex]\star\mathrm{-\cfrac{7}{9}}[/tex]

Hope it helps you out! :D
