Answer:
Slope = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation we use for slope is as follows:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
The graph gives us four points, but we only need two to solve our equation: (-2,5) and (2,1)
Now, we need to define which variable goes with which point:
Y2 = 1
X2 = 2
Y1 = 5
X1 = -2
If we plug these into our equation we get the following:
m = (1 - 5) / (2 - -2)
m = (-4) / (-4)
m = -1
Our slope for this graph = -1
I hope this helps!
