3. What is the slope of the line that contains the points (-6, 1) and (4, -4)?
A. 2
B. -2
C.1/2
D-1/2

I’m so confused help!!

I think the answer would be -1/2 or D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use this formula for calculating slope : y2-y1 / x2 - x1                                                            

1. label the pairs, 1 and 2

(-6, 1)  - ( x1, y1 )          or        (4,-4) - (x1, y1)

(4,-4) - ( x2, y2)                      (-6,1) - (x2, y2)  

(the order does not matter)

2. Than plug in your numbers

y2-y1 / x2 -x1                 y2-y1 / x2 -x1

-4 - 1 / 4 - (-6)        or        1 - (-4) / -6 - 4

= -5/10 or -1/2               = - 5/-10 or -1/2

im only in eight grade so i did my best explaining , and this hope it helps :)
