Question

What is the slope of the following linear function?

Answer 1

The answer to your question is: m = -1/3

Explanation:

First, we look for 2 points in the graph

A (0, -3)

B (3, -4)

Then find the slope

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

m = (-4 - - 3) / ( 3 - 0) Substitution

m = (-4 + 3) / 3 Simplify

m = -1 /3
