Question

Determine the slope of the line that passes through the points
(4, 4) and (5,0).

Answer 1

B) -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is change in y divided by change in x.

So, 6-4/-4-0 = 2/-4 so reduces to -1/2

Answer 2

Slope = -4

Explanation:

Slope = change in y ÷ Change in x

`= (y_(2)-y_(1))/(x_(2)-x_(1))\\\\= (0-4)/(5-4)\\\\= (-4)/(1)\\\\= - 4`
