Question

What is the slope of the line? I answered #1 already but i'm not too sure if it's correct.

Answer 1

slope: y2 - y1
----------
x2 - x1

step 1: 2-4
------
3-⁻4

step 2: 2-4
--------
3+4

Answer: -2
-----
7

Answer 2

From the graph: "rise" is -3 and "run" is -3/2. Thus, the slope is

rise -3 -1
m = -------- = -------- = --------- = -2 (answer)
run 3/2 1/2
