Question

NEED HELP FINDING SLOPE OF THE LINE

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = - $\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, - 2) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{-2-2}{2-(-4)}$ = $\frac{-4}{2+4}$ = $\frac{-4}{6}$ = - $\frac{2}{3}$
