What is the slope of the line through (-1,8)(−1,8)left parenthesis, minus, 1, comma, 8, right parenthesis and (3,-4)(3,−4)left parenthesis, 3, comma, minus, 4, right parenthesis?

The slope of the line through (-1, 8) and (3, -4) = m = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points

Determining the slope between (-1, 8) and (3, -4)

Using the formula

Slope = m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

                 =  [-4 - 8] / [3 - (-1)]

                 = [-12] / [3+1]

                 = -12/4

                 = -3

Thus, the slope of the line through (-1, 8) and (3, -4) = m = -3

The answer is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = Rise/Run = Change  in y/Change in x

Slope = (-4 - 8) / (3 - -1)

= -12/4

= -3

So, the answer is -3

Hope this helps! :)
