@iGreen @inowalst @IrishBoy123

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, so the graph is pointing up or down?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which way is the line pointing, is it going like this / or like this \

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, so now find you two points. Which two points are marked?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm really confused @iGreen can u help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, so find the two points. (0, 3) and (1,1)

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yeah, take the two points on the line and plug them into the slope formula. \(m = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\) \(m = \dfrac{1-3}{1-0}\) Simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 / 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then, you can go down two and to the right one. You get -2/1. It is - BECAUSE the line is facing \ this way.

OpenStudy (igreen):

Well..slope is also \(\sf \dfrac{Rise}{Run}\) And it tells you the rise and the run..so you can just divide.

OpenStudy (igreen):

1 is correct, but 2 is not..check again @danceing4yourlifeTGIF

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Remember, when you take something small from something large, you get a negative. YOur answer is correct, but it needs to be negative. The answer is as you put above.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The slope is -1.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A? is it A??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*sorry, -2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@DIDITHEDAD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the correct answer A?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@iGreen

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yes, it is.

OpenStudy (igreen):

That gives us: -2 / 1 And when we divide we get -2.
