Question

What is the slope OF THE GRAPH, not what is A slope, what is THE slope

Answer 1

Answer:

-3/1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope can be found by putting the rise over the run.  

Pick 2 points on the graph that intercept the line.

I'll pick (0,2), and (1,-1)

Look at the rise.(How many places it goes up or down)

The rise vertical distance(rise), between the two points is -3.

Now look at the run(the horizontal distance.)  It's 1.

Rise/Run =  -3/1  AKA -3

Answer 2

Answer:

the slope of this graph is $-\frac{3}1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the slope by choosing any two ordered pairs in this case I choose (2,-4) and (-1,1). The you find the run and rise. Slope=$\frac{rise}{run}$, the run was 3 up and the run was 1. And it is negative because it is going down to the right.
