Answer:
3. 3/4
4. -1/3
Explanation:
Since the rise and run formula is slope = (y1-y2)/(x1-x2),
3. (2 - (-1) ) / (2- (-2) ) = 3/4
4. (-1- (-3) ) / (-2 - (-4) ) = -2/6 = -1/3
1. 3/4 2. -1/3
#1:
Given rise/run, the rise is 3, and the run, is 4, so... 3/4
#2:
Given rise/run, the rise is 2, and the run is 6, so... you get 2/6 = 1/3. However, don't forget that the slope is negative, so it'll be -1/3.
