Question

draw a line representing the
ise\ and a line representing the
un\ of the line. state the slope of the line in simplest form. click twice to plot each segment. click a segment to delete it. answer attempt 1 out of 2 slope of the line:

Explanation:

Step1: Select two points on the line

Let's take two points, say $(0, 2)$ and $(2, 0)$.

Step2: Calculate the rise and run

Rise is the change in y - values: $y_2 - y_1=0 - 2=- 2$. Run is the change in x - values: $x_2 - x_1=2 - 0 = 2$.

Step3: Calculate the slope

The slope $m=\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}=\frac{-2}{2}=-1$.

Answer:

$-1$
