Question

find the slope of the line graphed below.

Explanation:

Step1: Select two points on the line

Let the two - points be $(0, 2)$ and $(3, - 1)$.

Step2: Use the slope formula $m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Here, $x_1 = 0,y_1 = 2,x_2 = 3,y_2=-1$. Then $m=\frac{-1 - 2}{3 - 0}$.

Step3: Calculate the value of the slope

$m=\frac{-3}{3}=-1$.

Answer:

$-1$
