Question

What’s the right answer? Choose the slope for the following line

Answer 1

Given:

There are given the graph of the line.

Explanation:

To find the slope of the line, first, we need to select the two points from the graph.

So,

The two points are:

$(-2,2)\text{ and }(0,\text{ -3\rparen}$

Now,

From the formula of slope:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Where,

$x_1=-2,y_1=2,x_2=0,y_2=-3$

Then,

Put all the above values into the formula of the slope:

So,

$\begin{gathered} m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} \\ m=\frac{-3-2}{0-\left(-2\right)} \\ m=-\frac{5}{2} \end{gathered}$

Final answer:

Because the given options are incorrect. hence, the correct answer is:

$-\frac{5}{2}$
