Question 202221: Need to double check this problem please:
Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (-9, -9) and (4, -1)
(-1-(-9))/(4-(-9))=8/13
-1=8/13 (4)+b
-1=32/13+b
-32/13 - 32/13
b=-45/13
y=8/13 x-45/13

Be careful, the question only asks for the slope! That means, 8/13 is the answer, not the full equation!
