Question

What is the slope of the line shown below? (Enter your answer as a decimal if

necessary.)
(-2, 4)

(4,-5)

Answer 1

- 1.5

Explanation:

Given points

( x1 , y1 ) = ( 4 , - 5 )

( x2 , y2 ) = ( - 2 , 4 )

Now

Slope (m)

= ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )

= ( 4 + 5 ) / ( - 2 - 4 )

= 9 / - 6

= -1.5
