Question

Find the slope of the line on the graph. Reduce all fractional answers to lowest terms.

m =

Answer 1

You have 2 points....(1,2) (-1,-2)
(x1,y1) (x2,y2)

in order to find the slope

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

so plug in your numbers and see what you get...

Answer 2

(1,2) (-1,-2)
(x1,y1) (x2,y2)

-2-2=-4
-1-1=-2

-4 over -2 Now reduce to

-2 over -1
