Question

Find the slope of the line

Answer 1

-3/2

Explanation:

Slope is rise over run or y/x

If the slope is angled down as it is in the picture it will be negative.

Answer 2

`m=(-3)/(2)`

Explanation:

Slope Formula:
`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m:

(-4, 2)

(0, -4)

`m=(-4-2)/(0-(-4))`

`m=(-6)/(0+4)`

`m=(-6)/(4)`

`m=(-3)/(2)`
