Question

What is the slope of the line shown on the graph?
(-3.2)
(-1,0)

Answer 1

SLOPE OF A LINE :-

The slope of a line is m= rise / run .

The rise measures the vertical change and the run measures the horizontal change.

Slope of the straight line passing through the points (X1,y1) and ( x2 , y2 ) is given by :-

`m = \frac{ {y}^(2) - {y}^(1) }{ {x}^(2) - {x}^(1) }`

Slope of the straight line passing through the points ( -3 .2 ) and (-1 , 0 ) is .

`m = \frac{0 + 2} { - 3 - 1} = - (3)/(2)`

Hope this helps you !!
