Choose the correct slope of the line that passes through the points (-4, 8) and (-3, -6). 7 -14 0 14

OpenStudy (zale101):

Do you remember the slope formula?

OpenStudy (shinalcantara):

slope is the change of y over x or following the formula you'll have, m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1). where m is the slope. now try to substitute the values

OpenStudy (secret-ninja):

I think it is -14.

OpenStudy (zale101):

\[slope=\frac{ y_2-y_1 }{ x_2-x_1 }=\frac{ -6-8 }{ -3-(-4) }=\frac{ -14 }{ -3+4 }=\frac{ -14 }{ 1 }=-14\]

OpenStudy (zale101):

correct :)
