Question

I need help with this question:
the slope between the points (4,0) and (0,-8)

Answer 1

The slope is:

`m = 2`

Explanation:

Use the slope formula:

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

Use both points (4,0) and (0,-8) for the slope formula:

`m = (-8-0)/(0-4)`

-Then, you solve:

`m = (-8-0)/(0-4)`

`m = (-8)/(-4)`

`m = 2`

So, therefore, the slope is
`2` .

Answer 2

The slope between those two points is 2
