Question

What is the slope of the line on graph?

Answer 1

slope = - 2

Explanation:

calculate slope m using the slope formula

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

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 6) ← 2 points on the line

m =
`(-6-6)/(3-(-3))` =
`(-12)/(3+3)` =
`(-12)/(6)` = - 2
