Find the slope using points (0,2) and (2,-6)

Do you know the slope formula?

anonymous · Answer

-4

igreen · Answer

Our two points are (0, 2) and (2, -6)

We can plug these into the slope equation: $m = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m = \dfrac{-6-2}{2-0}$

Subtract:

$m = \dfrac{-8}{2}$

Can you divide -8 / 2? @cerickson2
