Answer:
the slope is 1/2!
Explanation:
(2-4)/(4-8) = -2/-4 = 1/2
When finding the slope of a line you need to do the rise over run!
slope: 1/2
Finding the slope:
(8,4) (4,2)
(x1, y1) (x2, y2)
Subtract the x values and subtract the y values. (x1 - x-2) and (y1 - y2)
8 - 4 = 4
4 - 2 = 2
The slope is written as rise over run or y over x.
So, 2/4
Simplify: 1/2
