Question

How do you find the slope of (4, 1) and (2, 2)?

Answer 1

`color(chocolate)(slope = m = -(1/2)`

Explanation:

`"Knowing two points on the line, slope can be found using the formula, "`

`m = (y_2 - y_1) / (x_2 - x_1)`

`"Given two points : " A (4,1), B (2,2)`

`:. color(chocolate)(Slope = m = (2-1) / (2-4) = -(1/2)`
