Find the slope of the graph of the linear function f.
f(2) = -3, f(-2) =5

Answer by nerdybill(7384)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
if they gave you:
f(2) = -3, f(-2) =5
It's equivalent to giving you two points:
(2,-3), (-2,5)
.
Now, that you have two points:
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (5-(-3))/(-2-2)
m = (5+3)/(-2-2)
m = 8/(-4)
m = -2 (slope)
