Answer:
D. negative
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's analyze each answer choice.
A. Zero
A line with a zero slope is a horizontal line. The x values change, but the y values stay the same.
B. Undefined
A line with an undefined slope is a vertical line. The x values don't change and the y values vary.
C. Positive
When a line has a positive slope, the line increases from left to right.
D. Negative
When a line has a negative slope, the line decreases from left to right.
When we move from left to right on the graph, the line moves down. Therefore, this line must have a negative slope and D is correct.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Take any 2 points through which the line on graph passes,
(0,-1) =(x₁,y₁)
& (2,-4)=(x₂,y₂)
slope=(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)
=[-4-(-1)]/(2-0)
=-3/2
