Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
6. Given, (-5, 2) and (1, -2):
[tex] \frac{rise}{run} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_2} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{-2 - 2}{1 - (-5)} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{-4}{6} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{-2}{3} [/tex]
9. Given, (4, 10) and (-2, -5):
[tex] slope(m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_2} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{-5 - 10}{-2 - 4} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{-15}{-6} [/tex]
[tex] slope = \frac{5}{2} [/tex]
