Question

A line has a y-intercept at (0,4) and an x-intercept at (6,0). What is the slope of the line?

a. -2/3
b. 3/2
c. -3/2
d. 2/3

Answer 1

The correct answer is -2/3 or A

Explanation:

Answer 2

The correct answer is a. -2/3

Explanation:

In order to find the slope of the line, use the slope formula and solve for m.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (4 - 0)/(0-6)

m = 4/-6

m = -2/3
