Question

What is the slope of the line shown below?

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope of the line is -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope equation is:

m= y2-y1/x2-x1

In this case:

m= -3-6/2+1     (remember that a negative minus a negative gives you a positive)

Which equals:

m=-9/3

Divide and you get -3.
