Question

Complete the description of the slope of the line that joins the points

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope of the line that joins the points is negative.

i.e m = -6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking two points from the graph to determine the slope

• (-3, 4)

• (2, -2)

Finding the slope between (-3, 4),(2, -2)

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$'

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-3,\:4\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(2,\:-2\right)$

$m=\frac{-2-4}{2-\left(-3\right)}$

$m=-\frac{6}{5}$

Therefore, the slope of the line that joins the points is negative.

i.e m = -6/5
