Question

Find the slope (rate of change) of each representation. Please explain how you got it.

Answer 1

Answer:

m = -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the representation, use the slope formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

I'll pick (-4, 9) and (-2, 6) in this instance.

$m=\frac{9-6}{-4-(-2)}\\\\m=-\frac{3}{2}$

Therefore, the slope of the representation is -3/2.

Answer 2

Answer:

-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we can use the formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = ( -6 -9)/(6 - -4)

    = (-6-9)/(6+4)

     -15/10

  -3/2
