Question

What is the slope of the line between (−4, 4) and (−1, −2)?

Answer 1

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is

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

   = (-2 -4)/(-1 - -4)

   = -6/ ( -1 +4)

   = -6 /3

    =-2

Answer 2

Answer:

$= - 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$( - 4 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 4) = > (x1 \: \: \: \: \: \: y1) \\ ( - 1 \: \: \: \: - 2) = > (x2 \: \: \: \: \: \: y2)$

Now let's find the slope

$slope = \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2} \\ = \frac{4 - ( - 2)}{ - 4 - ( - 1)} \\ = \frac{4 + 2}{ - 4 + 1} \\ = \frac{6}{ - 3} \\ = - 2$

hope this helps you.
