SPACEGO

Answer:

C. -5

General Formulas and Concepts:

Algebra I

  • Coordinates (x, y)
  • Slope Formula: [tex]\displaystyle m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Find points from table

Point (-1, 6)

Point (0, 1)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

  1. Substitute in points [Slope Formula]:                                                              [tex]\displaystyle m = \frac{1 - 6}{0 - -1}[/tex]
  2. Subtract:                                                                                                            [tex]\displaystyle m = \frac{-5}{1}[/tex]
  3. Simplify:                                                                                                             [tex]\displaystyle m = -5[/tex]
