What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-10,-8) and
(-8, -16)? Write your answer in simplest form

Slope = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the slope

We are using the formula for slope

m =( y_2 - y_1) / (x_2 - x_1)

Using the two points given

( -10 , -8) ( -8 , -16)

x_1 = -10

y_1 = -8

x_2 = -8

y_2 = -16

Inserting the values given

m = (y_2 - y_1) /( x_2 - x_1)

m is the slope

m = -16 - (-8) / -8 - (-10)

m = -16 + 8 / -8 + 10

m = -8/ 2

m = -4

Therefore the slope is

m = -4

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.
