Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope can be defined as the change in y over the change in x
we can break this down even more by doing the y of the second point minus the y of the first point over x of the second point minus the y of the first point
so [tex]\frac{2-8}{4-2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-6}{2}[/tex] = -3 so the slope is -3
we can check this by graphing it and we will see that we get y= -3x+14 for an equation that runs through all the points.
