You can put this solution on YOUR website! find the slope, if it exsists, of thel ine containing the pairt points.
(-2.4,16.5) and 0.1,9.3)
------------
The slope, m, = diff in y/diff in x
m = (9.3-16.5)/(0.1-(-2.4))
m = -7.2/2.5
m = -2.88
Answer by nerdybill(7384)  (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Slope is defined as:
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
.
So, if your two points are:
(-2.4,16.5) and 0.1,9.3)
then
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (9.3-16.5)/(0.1-(-2.4))
m = (9.3-16.5)/(0.1+2.4)
m = (-7.2)/(2.5)
m = -2.88
