Answer:

C: -3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Put an extended line over each direct point you see and then count the graph it takes to reach the nearest point.

Answer 2

A: if i’m not correct, it looks like ur looking for slope. if so, c

explanation: slope is as follows: rise/run.
this slope is negative, because it is going down [think abt it like this, if you place a skier on this line, will he ski up or down?].

to find slope you can use the equation y2-y1/ x2-x1 = slope (m)

select 2 pairs of points. i chose (-4,-1) and ( 3,-4). because the point form is (x,y) my x1 = -4, y1 = -1 and x2 = 3, y2= -4.

let’s plug them into the equation above: -4 - (-1) / 3- (-4) = m

solve: -4 + 1/ 3+4 = -3/7

m= -3/7 or C
