Find the slope of the line through the points (1,−8) and (−9,−10).

You may have to simplify your answer to match one of the choices.

Answer :

Here's the solution :

we know,

[tex] \boxed{slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1 }{x_2-x_1} }[/tex]

where,

  • [tex] y_2 = -10 [/tex]
  • [tex] y_1 = -8 [/tex]
  • [tex] x_2 = -9 [/tex]
  • [tex] x_1 = 1 [/tex]

lets solve,

  • [tex] \hookrightarrow \dfrac{ - 10 - ( - 8)}{ - 9 - 1} [/tex]

  • [tex] \hookrightarrow \dfrac{ - 2}{ - 10} [/tex]

  • [tex] \hookrightarrow \dfrac{1}{5} [/tex]
