Find the slope (rate of change) of a line that passes through (–2, –3), and (1, 1).
(1 point)
A) onethird
B) 1
C) 2
D) fourthirds
The slope can be calculated by using the formula:
Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Substitute the values from the points (–2, –3) and (1, 1):
Slope = (1 - (-3)) / (1 - (-2))
Slope = 4 / 3
Slope = 4/3
Therefore, the slope of the line that passes through these points is 4/3 or one-third.
Answer: A) onethird
