Finding Slope Find the slope of the graph of the linear function f
Question#42.
f(2)= -3, f(-2)=5
You probably know that the slope of line is highlight%28m=%28y2-y1%29%2F%28x2-x1%29%29
The weird thing is the way that the points were given to you.
Remember, f(x)=y and x=x:
The first point is: (2,-3)=(x1,y1) and the second is: (-2,5)=(x2,y2)
m=%285-%28-3%29%29%2F%28-2-2%29
m=%285%2B3%29%2F%28-2-2%29
m=8%2F-4
highlight%28m=-2%29
Happy Calculating!!!!
