Question

find the slope of the line graphed below.

Explanation:

Step1: Select two points

Let's take the points $(1,1)$ and $(3, - 2)$.

Step2: Apply slope - formula

The slope formula is $m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$. Here, $x_1 = 1,y_1 = 1,x_2=3,y_2=-2$. Then $m=\frac{-2 - 1}{3 - 1}=\frac{-3}{2}$.

Answer:

$-\frac{3}{2}$
