Question

What is the slope if the line shown below? answer quick

Answer 1

I believe the answer is B. 3

Answer 2

Slope of a Line Passing through two points (x₁ , y₁) and (x₂ , y₂) is given by :

`\spadesuit\; Slope(m) = (y_1 - y_2)/(x_1 - x_2)`

Given Points are (-2 , -3) and (-4 , -9)

here x₁ = -2 and x₂ = -4 and y₁ = -3 and y₂ = -9

`\spadesuit\;Slope(m) = (-3 + 9)/(-2 + 4) = (6)/(3) = 3`
