Question

PLEASE HELP QUICKLY(20 POINTS!!)

what is the slope of this function

A. 1/2

B. -2

C. 2

D. -1/2

E. -3/2

F. -3

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m =
`(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )`

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 6, - 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 0) ← 2 points on the line

m =
`(0-(-6))/(6-(-6))`=
`(0+6)/(6+6)` =
`(6)/(12)` =
`(1)/(2)`
