How do you find the slope of # (15, 2), (-6, 5)#? Algebra Graphs of Linear Equations and Functions Slope 1 Answer sankarankalyanam Apr 13, 2018 #color(brown)("Slope " = m = -(1/7)# Explanation: Use the formula #m = (y_2 - y_1) / (x_2 - x_1) # to find the slope. #(x_1,y_1) = (15,2), (x_2,y_2) = (-6,5)# #m = (5-2) / (-6 - 15) = (3/-21) = -1/7# Answer link Related questions What is Slope?
