Question

What is the slope of the line with equation y-3=-1/2(x-2)?​

Answer 1

slope = -
`(1)/(2)`

Explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

y - 3 = -
`(1)/(2)`(x - 2) ← is in point- slope form

with slope m = -
`(1)/(2)`
