Find the slope, the change in y/change in x y decreases by 6 as x increases by 2 Simplify the fraction & u get your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's all u do.. ?

OpenStudy (jfraser):

find the slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

find the slope of (3,4) and (5,-2)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its 6, thats one of the choices

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Of course.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all u have to do is subtract 10 -4 on the y side to see the difference. u dont even need to do slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No. Y decreases by 6 X increases by 2 -6/2 = -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know to be honest, I came because you mentioned my name :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats there also

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thnx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Rate of change is a way to say slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know

OpenStudy (phi):

they want the change in y divided by the change in x

OpenStudy (jfraser):

rate of change IS slope, so you need both \(\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}\)
