Question

Find the slope of the line graphed A) -4/5 B)- 5/4C) 4/5D) 5/4​

Answer 1

Answer:

B) $\frac{-5}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Take any two points

(x₁ , y₁) = ( -4 , 0)  & (x₂ , y₂) = (0 , -5)

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

        $=\frac{-5-0}{0-[-4]}\\\\=\frac{-5}{0+4}\\\\=\frac{-5}{4}$
