Question

Find the slope of the line shown ​

Answer 1

Answer: m= -1/2

Explanation:

m is the gradient of a line. and the formula for gradient is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

first, find a point on the line, (-2,1) and that is equal to (x1,y1)

then find another point on the line, (2,-1) and that is equal to (x2,y2)

then substitute your points into the formula above and that is equal to

(-1-1)/(2-(-2))

= -2/4

= -1/2

that is your answer
