Question

What is the slope of the line? Explain how you calculated the slope in the graph going through the points (-6,-3) and (-2,-8).

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{-5}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula so y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 [the numbers are subscripts]  

So -8 - (-3) / -2 - (-6) so -8+3/-2+6, therefore -5/4
