Question

What is the slope of the line graphed below? (3, 1) and (0, -5)

A. 1/2
B. -2
C. 2
D. -1/2

Answer 1

3 However in the answer choices you gave I believe the question is incorrect

Explanation:

(3,1) and (0,-5)

y1-y2/x1-x2

-5-1/0-3

-6/-3=3

Answer 2

Slope=change in y/change in x

Slope=m

m=(1-(-5)/(3-0)=6/3=2

The answer is 2 for the slope.

Have a great day!
