Question

Find the slope of the line through (2, -3) and (-4, 3).

Answer 1

Y=-x-3 slope =-1

Explanation:

To first find the gradient u have to subtract the y intercepts and the x intercepts

3--3/-4-2

=6/-6=-1

Y-3/x--4=-1

Y-3=-1(x+4)

Y-3=-x+-4

Y=-x-4+3

Y=-x-3

Slope=-1

Answer 2

Slope= -1x OR -x

Explanation:

rise over run: y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

= 3 - (-3) / -4 - 2

= 6 / -6

= -1
