Question

11. Which set of points could you use to create a line with slope of -3/2? (A) (5,7) (7,4) (B) (-1,4) (1,7) (C) (3,2) (1,-3)(D) (-3,0) (0,-2)

Answer 1

(A) (5,7) (7,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the set of points that could be used to create a line with a slope of -3/2, we use the slope formula below.

`\text{Slope}=\frac{Change\text{ in y-axis}}{Change\text{ in x-axis}}`

Option A

`\begin{gathered} \text{Slope}=(7-4)/(5-7) \\ =-(3)/(2) \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the set of points is (5,7) and (7,4).
