Line AB contains points A (−2, 6) and B (4, 5). The slope of line AB is −6 negative 1 over 6 1 over 6 6

Verified Answer :

To work out the slope of a line, you have to divide the difference in y by the difference in x

The difference in y = 5-6 = -1
The difference in x = 4--2 = 6

So, -1/6 is the answer

Answer:

The slope is negative \(1\) over \(6\)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

\(m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}\)

we have

\(A(-2,6)\ B(4,5)\)

Substitute the values

\(m=\frac{5-6}{4+2}\)

\(m=-\frac{1}{6}\)
