Question

Please help me, GodBless.

Answer 1

-6

Explanation:

Hi,

To find the slope when given a table, just pick two points, subtract the y values, and then divide them by the x values after you subtract them as well. Here's what I mean...

Let's use 1, -11 and 5, -35

So...

-35 - (-11)

This is the change in y. -35 - (-11) is the same thing as -35 + 11 (subtracting negative switches to adding it)

You get -24

Now, the change in x.

5 - 1 = 4

So, -24/4 and you get the slope of : -6

I hope this helps :)

Answer 2

-6

Explanation:

To find the slope, you do y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

= -35 - 11 / 5 - 1

= -24 / 4

= -6

The slope is -6
