What is the slope of the line that goes through (8 8) and (4 6)

The slope of the line is:

We know that the slope of a line passing through two points:

(a,b) and (c,d) is calculated as the ratio of the change in the y-value of the two points to the change in the x-values of the two points in the same order.

It is also know as the average rate of change and is denoted by "m"

i.e.

Here the line pass through (8,8) and (4,6)

Hence, the slope of line is:

the answer is y < -3 or   y > 3

-3y > 7 + 2

-3 y > 9

y < -3
