Find the slope of the line that passes through the two points (7,2) and (-4,-6)

The answer to your question is  m = 8/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A ( 7, 2)

B (-4, - 6)

Slope measures the steepness of a line. Most of the time the slope is constant on a line.

Formula

slope = m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

x1 = 7            y1 = 2

x2 = -4          y2 = -6

-Substitution

              m = (-6 - 2) / (-4 - 7)

-Simplification

              m = -8 / -11

-Result

              m = 8/11
