% slope  = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\implies \cfrac{-1-8}{4-1}\implies \cfrac{-9}{3}\implies -3

Answer:

The slope between the points where x=1 and where x=4 is :

-3

i.e. option: A is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Y=f(X)

We are given a table of values as:

X: 1 , 3 , 4

Y: 8, 6, -1

Let m represents the slope .

We know that the slope between the points x=a and x=b is give by:

m=\dfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Here we are asked to find the slope between x=1 and x=4

i.e. we have:

a=1     and   b=4

f(a)=8   and    f(b)= -1

Hence, the slope between x=1 and x=4 is calculated as:

m=\dfrac{-1-8}{4-1}\\\\m=\dfrac{-9}{3}\\\\m=-3

Hence, the slope is:

-3
