What is the slope of the line?

What Is The Slope Of The Line class=

Sagot :

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope of the line is expressed as the ratio

y coordinate change / x coordinate change

when going from one point to the other.

the trick in such a situation is to find good points on the chart that are crossed by the line. and by "good" I mean points with round integer coordinates.

I see 2 such points :

(-3, 4) and (1, -3)

x changes by +4 (from -3 to 1)

y changes by -7 (from 4 to -3)

the slope is therefore -7/+4 = -7/4
