Given the following two points, determine the slope of the line that connects them:
1. (3, -5) and (5, -5)

2. (-3, 1) and (4, -2)

3. (-2, 3) and (-2, 4)

4. (0, 0) and (-2, -3)

5. (-1/2, 3/4) and (-2, 1/3)

6. (-9, 3) and (-6, -5)

7. A roof drops 4 feet for every 12 feet forward. Determine the slope of the roof.

8. A commercial bus was purchased new for $35,000. After 10 years, the bus was valued at $13,000.
Determine the rate at which the bus depreciates in value.

9. Find y if the slope of the line passing through (5, y) and (6, -1) is 10.

Graphing:
