Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-1,2) and (-4,0).

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we use the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( 0 - 2)/( -4 - -1)

   = ( 0-2)/( -4+1)

   = -2/-3

  = 2/3

2/3

Work: So, the slope Formula is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1. So, let plug everything in. y2 is Zero, y1 is Two. x2 is negative four, and x1 is a negative one. So, the equation is 0 - 2 / -4 - ( -1).  After solving you get -2 / -3. Then turn it into a positive 2/3 because both sides are negative.

I hope this helps, and Happy Holidays!
