Calculate the slope of the line given the points (-2, 6) and (0, 4).


A. -1

B. 1

C. 0

D. none of the above

Answer 1

do you know how to find a slope?

Answer 2

where is the line

Answer 3

no

Answer 4

Slope is rise over run.

Answer 5

\[\frac{ Rise }{ Run }\]

Answer 6

Our "Rise" is our y-coordinates. Our "Run" is our x-coordinates.

Answer 7

The formula for slope is \[\frac{ y2-y1 }{ x2-x1 }\]

Answer 8

yep

Answer 9

she got it do you understand that ?

Answer 10

(-2, 6) and (0, 4)
So your first pair of coordinates can be (-2,6), if you'd like. So. x1=-2 y1=6

Answer 11

Second pair can be (0,4), if you'd like. So, x2=0 y2=4.

Answer 12

I'll plug these in for you, but you will simplify.

Answer 13

\[\frac{ 4-6 }{ 0-(-2) }\]
