Question

Write the equation of the line in point-slope form

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope of this line is -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the value of any slope, you use the slope formula.

m (slope) = (y1 - y2)/(x1 - x2)

Then we pick two points in order to plug in. For the purpose of this graph, we'll use (0, -1) and (2, -2)

m (slope) = (y1 - y2)/(x1 - x2)

m (slope) = (-1 - -2)/(0 - 2)

m (slope) = 1/-2

m (slope) = -1/2
