Answer 1

we need more information

Answer 2

m is the slope , can u post the question first???

Answer 3

Uh... i had to find the slope of (-2,4) and (4,-1).

Answer 4

Ok, well if m is the slope, then you should be able to get from one point to the other by going down 5 in y, and up 6 in x

Answer 5

m is the slope (rise over run) the change in y over the change in x

Answer 6

I know that.. but did i do it right?

Answer 7

So starting at (-2,4) you go up 6 in x and down 5 in y and you are at (4,-1) which is your second point. So yes, that's correct.

Answer 8

yes! :)
