Hi student, let me help you out! :)

We are asked to find the slope of the line that passes through (-6, 8) and (-9, 7).
[tex]\triangle~\fbox{\bf{KEY:}}[/tex] (formula for Slope)
[tex]\longmapsto\bf{\cfrac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}}[/tex]
y2 & y1 = the y-coordinates of the two points
x2 & x1 = the x-coordinates of the two points
[tex]\ddot\bigstar[/tex] Remember this...
[tex]\fbox{y2\;and\;y1\;are\;y-coordinates\;of\;the\;two\;points,\;and\;x2\;and\;x1\;are\;x-coordinates}}[/tex]
So we substitute the values and obtain:
[tex]\bf{\cfrac{7-8}{-9-(-6)}[/tex]
Simplifying:
[tex]\bf{\cfrac{-1}{-9+6}}[/tex]
Simplifying more:
[tex]\bf{\cfrac{-1}{-3}}[/tex]
Divide the top and bottom by -1:
[tex]\bf{\cfrac{1}{3}}[/tex]
There's the slope.
Hope it helps you out! :D
