Answer:
[tex]m=-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Same as last time, take any 2 points you want:
(0, 3) and (4, 1)
Use the slope formula to calculate the slope:
[tex]m=\frac{1-3}{4-0}\\m=\frac{-2}{4}\\m=-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
On small problems like these, you don't really even need to calculate it like that. You can just look at the graph, see that it goes down 1 and over 2 from one point to the next, and have your slope that way. Again, rise over run. It "rises" by -1, and runs by 2. -1 over 2, there's your slope.
