Answer : The correct option is, (A) -3
Step-by-step explanation :
The general form for the formation of a linear equation is:
[tex](y-y_1)=m\times (x-x_1)[/tex]
where,
x and y are the coordinates of x-axis and y-axis respectively.
m is slope of line.
Now we have to calculate the slope of line.
Formula used :
[tex]m=\frac{(y_2-y_1)}{(x_2-x_1)}[/tex]
Here,
[tex](x_1,y_1)=(-2,4)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)=(0,-2)[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{(-2-4)}{(0-(-2))}[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{-6}{2}[/tex]
m = -3
Therefore, the slope of the line is, -3
