Question

What is the slope of this line?

y+2=−2(x−3)

Answer 1

-2

Explanation:

The final equation is y= -2x+4, so the slope is -2

Answer 2

The slope is -2

Explanation:

This equation is in point slope form

(y-y1) = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and ( x1,y1) is a point on the line

y+2=−2(x−3)

y- -2=−2(x−3)

The slope is -2 and a point on the line is ( -3,-2)
