Question

Yo ill give 40 points to whoever answers this

(2,8)
(4,2,)
(6,-4)
(9,-13)
Find the slope.

Answer 1

-3

Explanation:

The slope can be defined as the change in y over the change in x

we can break this down even more by doing the y of the second point minus the y of the first point over x of the second point minus the y of the first point

so
`(2-8)/(4-2)` =
`(-6)/(2)` = -3 so the slope is -3

we can check this by graphing it and we will see that we get y= -3x+14 for an equation that runs through all the points.
