Question

what is the slope if the line is (-4, 3) (0,0

Answer 1

To find the slope of the line that passes through the points \((-4, 3)\) and \((0, 0)\), you can use the slope formula:

\[
m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}
\]

where \((x_1, y_1)\) is the first point and \((x_2, y_2)\) is the second point.

Using the points:
- \((x_1, y_1) = (-4, 3)\)
- \((x_2, y_2) = (0, 0)\)

Plugging these values into the formula gives:

\[
m = \frac{0 - 3}{0 - (-4)} = \frac{-3}{4}
\]

So, the slope of the line is \(-\frac{3}{4}\).
