Short Answer

Calculating Slope for a Construction Grid

A construction planner is mapping a straight trench for a plumbing line on a site grid. The trench connects a starting node at (2,6)(-2, 6) to an ending node at (3,4)(-3, -4). Calculate the slope of the trench line. In your answer, provide the unsimplified fraction obtained directly after substituting the points into the slope formula, and the final simplified slope.
