Question

What is the slope? Please Help

Answer 1

-1

Explanation:

Use two points on the line to find the slope, using rise over run.

We can use the points (0, 2) and (2, 0).

From the first point to the other, the y value decreases by 2 and the x value increases by 2.

Use rise (change in y value) over run (change in x value):

-2 / 2

= -1

So, the slope is -1.

Answer 2

-1

Explanation:

Pick two points on the line

(0,2) and (2,0)

Using the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= ( 0-2)/(2-0)

= -2/2

= -1
