Question

Please help me on this question ( =___ ) that’s out of the picture at the bottom since I couldn’t fit it in

Answer 1

ANSWER:

$m=\frac{4-8}{2-1}$

$\frac{-4}{1}$

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We are asked to calculate the slope of the line, we know that the slope is calculated using the following formula:

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

We replace the points, and get the slope, just like this:

$\begin{gathered} m=\frac{4-8}{2-1} \\ m=\frac{-4}{1} \end{gathered}$
