Question

The slope of the line is  (b) Interpret the slope.For every - change in x, the change in y is with the points (-2,3) (1,1)  .

Answer 1

Find out the slope

(-2,3) (1,1)

m=(1-3)/(1+2)

m=-2/3

Interpret the slope

we have a negative slope

that means

Is a decreasing function

as the value of x increases 3 units -----> the value of y decrease 2 units

or

as the value of x decreases 3 units ----> the value of y increases 2 unit
