Question

Choose the correct slope of the line that passes through the points (−4, 8) and (−3, −6).

Answer 1

Answer:

The expression for slope given two points on a line is

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

This comes out to (the expression will appear different depending on which is point 2 and which point 1, but the slope will be the same either way)

m = (8 + 6) / (-4 + 3) = -14
