WILL MEDAL AND FAN! What is the slope of the line passing through the points (–3, 4) and (2, –1)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes (:

OpenStudy (pounce0129):

you would need to use the slope formula: http://education-portal.com/cimages/multimages/16/Slope_formula_2.png

OpenStudy (pounce0129):

y2=-1 y1=4 x2=2 x1=-3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im so confused

OpenStudy (pounce0129):

\[m=\frac{ -1-4 }{ 2-(-3) }\]

OpenStudy (pounce0129):

\[m=\frac{ -5 }{ 5 }\] \[m=-1\] so the slope is -1

OpenStudy (pounce0129):
