Answer:
The slope is - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope, m =change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis represent
change in the value of y = y2 - y1
Change in value of x = x2 -x1
y2 = final value of y
y 1 = initial value of y
x2 = final value of x
x1 = initial value of x
The line passes through the point (6, 2) and (4, 10)
y2 = 10
y1 = 2
x2 = 4
x1 = 6
Slope,m = (10 - 2)/(4 - 6) = 8/- 2 = - 4
