Question

1. What is the slope of the line in the graph show below?

a. -2
b. -1
c. 1
d. 2

2. Find the slope of a line that passes through (-2,3) and (1,1)

a. 1/3
b. 1
c. 2
d. 4/3

Answer 1

1
That is a negative slope -2 so it is A
2
Slope is -2/3 so not sure why that answer choice is not there

Answer 2

Question 1:

Slope=rise/run

Slope=2/1

Slope= 2

The answer is D.

Question 2:

Using Desmos, i was able to plot the point on the graph and find the slope:

Slope=rise/run=(y2-yi)/(x2-xi)

Slope=(1-3)/(1-(-2)

Slope =(1-3)/(1+2)

Slope=-2/3

I don't know about question 2, but that is what I found.
