Answer 1

-400

Explanation:

took the test

Answer 2

A. -400

Explanation:

1. We can use the slope-intercept formula, which is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
2. If we choose (0,4000) and (10,0), we can plug this into our formula.
3. This will be (4000-0)/(0-10).
4. Simplifying this, this is -400.
5. Therefore, the slope of the line shown in the graph is -400.
