answer:
m=1/2
explanation:
in order to find the slope you use the two points given (2,-2) and (0,-3)
you plug it into the rise over run form
so (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) go into the form
(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
so plugging in the numbers it would be
(-3 - (-2))/(0 - 2)
solve inside the parentheses:
top-
-3 - -2= drop a line change the sign
= -3 + 2= -1
then the bottom-
0 - 2= -2
which leaves you with -1/-2
then simplify to get 1/2
the slope of the two points is 1/2
m=1/2
