Question

what is the slope of the line graphed here? o 3/2 o 2/3 o -3/2 o -2/3

Explanation:

Step1: Identify two points

Let the two points be $(-1,-1)$ and $(1,-4)$.

Step2: Use slope - formula

The slope formula is $m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$. Here, $x_1=-1,y_1 = - 1,x_2 = 1,y_2=-4$. Then $m=\frac{-4-(-1)}{1-(-1)}=\frac{-4 + 1}{1 + 1}=\frac{-3}{2}$.

Answer:

C. -3/2
