Question

What is the slope of the line in the graph shown below?

Answer 1

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for solving this is rise/run. The rise is -2 and the run is 1.

so if you plug that into the formula you get -2/1, which is equal to -2.

Answer 2

Answer:

See below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is calculated from the 2 points (0,3) and (1,1).

Slope = difference in y values /  difference in corresponding  x values:

Slope = (3 - 1) / (0 - 1) = -2.
