Answer:

Given the graph, we can determine the slope, and use slope formula* to prove it.

Points: (-4, 1) and (-2, -1)

From the graph, the slope of the line is -1, mean the line goes down 1 unit and left 1 unit.

To prove this you can use slope formula*:


m = (-1 - 1)/(-2 + 4) = (-2)/(2) = -1

*Slope formula:
m = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1)
