Question

What is the slope of this line?

Enter your answer as a fraction in simplest term in the box.

Answer 1

-1

Explanation:

First observe the line. The slope will be negative because the line is going up to the left. When figuring out the slope, pick two points. I am going to pick (-2,0) and (-3,1). Use the rise over run method. When starting at (-2,0), go up and over until you reach (-3,1). That means you have to go 1 up and 1 over. 1/1 is 1. The line is negative, so 1 will turn into -1. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions or if this is wrong.

Answer 2

i think it’s -1 because with rise/run it goes down 2 and over 2 but the line is going down, so it’s negative.
