+130511 what is the slope of two points going through (-10,-4) and (-1,2)??
======================================================
"Slope" is defined as "the change in y" divided by "the change in x"
Look at our two points......notice that y changes by 6 - (-4 to 2) - from the first point to the second.
And x changes by 9 - (-10 to -1) - from the first point to the second.
So, our slope is just 6/9 or 2/3 !!!
And that's it!!
