If the equation of a line is [ Y = -2 ] the the line is horizontal. Its slope is zero.
To find the slope we need to divide the difference in rise between these two points by the difference in run between them. The difference in rise equals: 3-2 = 1. The difference in run between these points equals: 2-4 = -2.Now we just divide 1/-2 and we get the slope of the line formed by these two points: -0.5
Which of the following is the point-slope equation of the line with a slope equals -4 and a point of -2 3?
Slope is 2.
For the line 2x + y = 8 , the slope equals ( -2 ) so the required slope of the line which is perpendicular to it is equal to (+1/2 )
Slope = 2
-2 or written as a slope - 2/1
The slope of the line y = -2 is zero.
It will have the same slope which is 2
The slope is 5.
The slope is -4
-2
2
