Question

question #9
find the slope of the line graphed below.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify two points

Choose two clear points on the line, e.g., \((0, 1)\) and \((2, 0)\).

Step2: Apply slope formula

Slope \(m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\). Substitute \(x_1 = 0, y_1 = 1, x_2 = 2, y_2 = 0\):
\(m = \frac{0 - 1}{2 - 0} = \frac{-1}{2} = -\frac{1}{2}\).

Answer:

\(-\frac{1}{2}\)
