- Slope Formula: [tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
Find points from graph.
Point (0, 0)
Point (1, -2)
Step 2: Find slope m
Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m
- Substitute in points [SF]: [tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{-2-0}{1-0}[/tex]
- [Fraction] Subtract: [tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{-2}{1}[/tex]
- [Fraction] Divide: [tex]\displaystyle m=-2[/tex]
