Question

What is the slope of the linear relationship shown in this table of values?

Answer 1

Second answer choice

Answer 2

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope m use any 2 ordered pairs from the table.

Calculate m using the slope formula

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

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, 11) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, - 1)

m = $\frac{-1-11}{2+4}$ = $\frac{-12}{6}$ = - 2 → B
