    Algebra I

    • Coordinates (x, y)
    • Slope Formula: \displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step 1: Define

    Point (9, -1)

    Point (4, -11)

    Step 2: Find slope m

    Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

    1. Substitute in points [Slope Formula]:                                                             \displaystyle m=\frac{-11+1}{4-9}
    2. [Fraction] Add/Subtract:                                                                                 \displaystyle m=\frac{-10}{-5}
    3. [Fraction] Divide:                                                                                            \displaystyle m=2

    Answer:2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    \frac{-11-(-1)}{4-9}You use the slope equation so -11 -(-1) would be -11+1 because the negatives cancel each other out and you get -10. Then 4-9 is -5 and then -10 divided by -5 is a positive 2.
