Question

What is the slope of (2 , -2) (0,4)

Answer 1

The slope is -3

Explanation:

`(y)/(x)`

You do the change in y over the change in x

`(-2 - 4)/(2 - 0)`

which equals

`(-6)/(2) = -3`

Answer 2

-3

Explanation:

The slope for two points is found by

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

= (4--2)/(0-2)

= (4+2)/(0-2)

= (6/-2)

=-3
