Question

Find the slope of the line that goes through the given points.
(0,8) and (- 4,0)

Answer 1

y=2x+8

Slope = 2

Explanation:

Answer 2

slope = 2

Explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 8) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 4, 0)

m =
`(0-8)/(-4-0)` =
`(-8)/(-4)` = 2
