Question

What is the slope of the line1. -5/62. -6/53. 5/64. 6/5

Answer 1

1) Since the question just asks us the slope, then we can find by picking 2 points and plugging into this formula

2) Picking points (-2,4) and (3,-2) and inserting them we have:

`\begin{gathered} m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1) \\ m=(-2-4)/(3-(-2)) \\ m=(-6)/(5) \\ m=-\text{ }(6)/(5) \end{gathered}`

So the slope is m= -6/5
