Question

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (-3, 4) and (2, - 1)? A -1

Answer 1

Answer:

A

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 ) = (- 3, 4 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, - 1 )

m = $\frac{-1-4}{2-(-3)}$ = $\frac{-5}{2+3}$ = $\frac{-5}{5}$ = - 1 → A
