Question

Find the slope of the line with f(6) = -2 and f(-4) = 3

Answer 1

m=-1/2

Explanation:

f(6)=-2 is (6,-2) and f(-4)=3 is (-4,3)

the equation for slope (m) is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

label the points:

x1=6

y2=-2

x2=-4

y2=3

now substitute into the equation:

m=(3--2)/(-4-6)

m=5/-10

m=-1/2

the slope is -1/2

hope this helps!
