Question

What us the slope of the points, (0,20) and, (4,0)?

Answer 1

-5

Solution,

Let the points be A and B

A(0,20)---------> (X1,y1)

B(4,0)------------>(x2,y2)

Now,

`slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = (0 - 20)/(4 - 0) \\ \: \: \: \: \: = ( - 20)/(4) \\ \: \: \: \: = - 5`

hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment....

Answer 2

-5

Explanation:

The equation to find the slope between two points is y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁.

In this case that would be 0-20/4-0 which simplifies into -20/4=-5

So your slope is -5
