Question

What is the slope of this graph?​

Answer 1

Slope = -1

Explanation:

Since, slope of a line passing through two points
`(x_1,y_1)` and
`(x_2,y_2)` is given by,

Slope =
`(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Therefore, slope of a line passing through two points A(1, 4) and B(3, 2) will be,

Slope =
`(4-2)/(1-3)`

= (-1)

Therefore, slope of the line is (-1).
