The slope of a line can be found by using the formula:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Let's plug in the coordinates (2, -4) and (-3, 1) into the formula:
m = (1 - (-4)) / (-3 - 2)
= (1 +4) / (-5)
= 5 / (-5)
= -1
Therefore, the slope of the line is -1.
(2, -4) (-3,1)
Find the slope of the line given its graph.
