What is the slope of the line represented by the equation f(x) = 3/2x-4?

Answer 1

Answer:

-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation for slope of the line is y = mx + b

3/2 is the m, or the slope.

-4 is the b, or the y intercept.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation f(x) = (3/2)x - 4 is in slope-intercept format of y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).

The slope is (3/2).  [It intercepts the y axis at - 4 when x = 0.]
