Answer:

Well, actually it's missing something to your question. I think...

but the question says "The points in the table lie on a line. What is the slope of the line?"

The answer might be "X"

why? still not sure but hope this other one helps...

Explanation:

m =
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )

(8,-8) (1,-2)


x_(1)
y_(1)
x_(2)
y_(2)

there and you can solve it easy

Answer:

-7/4

Explanation:

Recall that slope, m, is defined as the ratio rise to run: rise/run.

Note that if we start at x = -2 (an arbitrary choice), and move 6 units to the right, we end up at x = 4. This is the 'run.' Simultaneously, y starts at 1 and decreases to - 6, a change of -7.

Thus, the slope of the line through these two points is m = rise/run = -7/4
