Question 253153
We are given the following coordinates: (-5,6) and (5,3)
--
step 1 find the slope using:
{{{m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)}}}
We get
{{{m = (3-6)/(5-(-5))}}}
{{{m = -3/10}}}
Since this is a negative number, the slope is called negative and as we read from left to right, we see it falls down to the right.
