Question

What is the slope of the graphed above?
A. -2
B. -1
C. -1/2
D. 1/2
E. 2
​

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is rise/run or y2-y1/x2-x1

We use the two points (0,1) and (2,0)

y2=0, y1=1, x2=2, x1=0

0-1=-1

2-0=2

-1/2=-1/2

This gives a slope of -1/2, Answer Choice C

Answer 2

Answer:

The Answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

From Point (-2,2), we go to point (0,1). The x changed by two, and the y changed by one. Therefore, when x changes by one, y changes by one-half. This slope is negative, making the answer -1/2
