What is the slope of the line in the graph shown?

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

-2 slope so A

Step-by-step explanation:

to find slope it be rise over run

to get from (1,1) to (0,3) you have to rise 2 and go back 1

so numbers form it be 2/-1 what is the same as -2 slope

also you can tell its a negative slope cause everything is descending down.

There is 2 steps to do it. one is using rise/run and other is y2-y1/x2-x1

1st step: It's -2 cause the rise is -2 and run is 1  and the slope formula is rise/run which is -2/1=-2.

2nd step: (0,3)(1,1)

x1=0

y1=3

x2=1

y2=1

1-3/1-0

-2/1

-2

For both of them, we get -2. So, the answer is -2

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)
