What is the slope of the line? A.–3 B.-1/3 C.1/3 D.3

OpenStudy (mnr134):

satellite73 (satellite73):

how many steps to the right from \(2\) to \(5\)?

OpenStudy (john_doe02125):

Okay, first how many times does it rise/run.

OpenStudy (john_doe02125):

If we find two good points on the line, we should be able to figure out the slope.

OpenStudy (shastri007):

Use the formula m = y^2 - y1 / x2 -x1 Basically the change in y over x The correct answer is -3

OpenStudy (john_doe02125):

y2-y1/x2-x1 is Point slope form. So, use that. :)

OpenStudy (mnr134):

i think its d

OpenStudy (therawbugeyes):

thats what i came up with too

OpenStudy (shastri007):

Its not d, its -3

OpenStudy (shastri007):

Here is the solution explained

OpenStudy (mnr134):

are u sure its -3

OpenStudy (shastri007):

Yes 100 percent

OpenStudy (shastri007):

Do you understand @mnr134 I assign (x, y) and (x2, y2) to each coordinate and plug into the equation

OpenStudy (therawbugeyes):

hes right its -3
