Answer :

The slope of the line that passes through the points (-5, 6) and (-9, -6) is 3

What is slope ?

A line's steepness is determined by its slope. In mathematics, slope is determined by "rise over run" (change in y divided by change in x).

Let the given points as shown:

(x1,y1)= (-5, 6) and (x2,y2)= (-9, -6)

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

                 = (-6-6) /(-9-(-5))

                 = -12/-4

                 = 3

So, the slope of the line that passes through the points (-5, 6) and (-9, -6) is 3
