Answer:

slope=-\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula for two points:

\frac{y(2)-y(1)}{x(2)-x(1)}=\frac{rise}{run}

Insert values

\frac{-12-(-10)}{11-5}

Simplify

\frac{-12+10}{11-5} \\\\\\\frac{-2}{6} \\\\-\frac{2}{6}

Simplify

-\frac{1}{3}

Which of the quadratic functions has the narrowest graph? y = –2x2 y=-1/2x^2 y = –4x2 y=1/7x^2
vovikov84 [41]
Look at the coefficient of x², ignore the positive or negative sign. The larger the coefficient, the narrower the graph. 
in this case, the coefficients are -2, -1/2, -4, and 1/7
ignore the positive or negative sign, 4 is the largest number, so y=-4x² is the narrowest.

Note: the positive/negative sign tells you whether the graph opens upward or downward. It doesn't determine the width of the graph.
