Question

Find the slope of the line

Answer 1

Y2-y1/x2-x1
1-4=-3
2-(-1)=3
-3/3= 1

Answer 2

Answer:

slope = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 1)

m = $\frac{1-4}{2+1}$ = $\frac{-3}{3}$ = - 1
