question 31
find the slope of the line graphed above.
m =
check answer

Explanation:

Step1: Select two points

Let's take two points on the line, say (0, 2) and (2, - 2).

Step2: Use slope - formula

The slope formula is $m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$. Here, $x_1 = 0,y_1 = 2,x_2=2,y_2=-2$. Then $m=\frac{-2 - 2}{2-0}$.

Step3: Calculate the value

$m=\frac{-4}{2}=-2$.

Answer:

$-2$
