Question

Find the slope of the line a) 4 b) 1 c) -1 d) -4

Answer 1

Answer:

d) - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

(-1,3) (0,-1)

slope = y₂ - y₁/x₂x- x₁

= -1 - 3 / 0 - [-1]

= -1-3 / 0+ 1

= -4/1

= - 4

Answer 2

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 1) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{-1-3}{0+1}$ = - 4 → D
