What is the slope of the line in the graph?

Answer:
-3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
1) lets take two points on the graph
(0,1) and (-4,4)
formula of slope:
[tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]
where y2=4
y1=1
x2=-4
x1=0
so
[tex]\frac{4-1}{-4-0}[/tex]
3/-4
-3/4 is the slope
Answer:
y = -3/4 + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
m = slope
b = y - intercept
b = 1
To find the slope, we can use any two coordinates on the line depicted on the graph above.
Let's use the coordinates (0,1) and (4,-2).
The formula to find the slope is rise/run.
-2 - 1 / 4 - 0 = -3/4
Our slope is -3/4, but we can check it by plugging it into an equation and using the y - intercept.
Let's use the coordinates (4,-2).
-2 = 4(-3/4) + 1
-12/4 = -3
-3 + 1 = -2
