Find the slope of the line connecting (1, 7), (10, 1)

Slope = (Y2 -Y1) ÷ (X2 -X1)

Slope = (1 -7) / (10 -1)

Slope = -6 / 9 = -0.6666666666666666

2/3

step-by-step explanation:

the slope of a line is equal to the rise/run. in this case the line rises 2 units for every +3 units it moves

an

y = 6x -3y -12

y +3y +12 = 6x

=> . x = { 2y / 3 +2 } this is equation of line in terms of x

=> . if line meets the x-axis the co-ordinates of meeting point would be ( x , 0 )

=> . x = 2 ( 0 ) / 3 + 2

=> . x = 2

so, the point is ( 2 , 0 )
