Answer:

-2

Explanation:

Slope formula for any given two points

(y2 - y1 / x2 - x1)

The points chosen may vary but the points I chose were (0,1) and (2,-3)

Our next step is to identify the variables

y2 = -3

y1 = 1

x2 = 2

x1 = 0

We then plug in the values into the slope formula

slope = ( -3 - 1 ) / ( 2 - 0 )

Simply

Slope = -4 / 2

Simply even further

Slope = -2

the slope of each line is -2.

Answer:

Solution Given:

let's find out the given points.

1st point
(x_1,y_1)=(0,1)

another point is:


(x_2,y_2)=(2,-3)

now

By using slope formula


\green{\boxed{m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)}}

now

substituting value

we get

m=
(-3-1)/(2-0)=(-4)/(2)=-2
