Let the two coordinates of the points are A(4,0) and B(2,-4) respectively. We have given to find out the slope (m) = ? The standard formula for calculating slope is given by,

[tex]\implies\rm{ \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} }[/tex]

Here we have,

  • x1 = 4 and y1 = 0

  • x2 = 2 and y2 = -4

Placing values in formula we get,

[tex]\implies\rm{ \frac{ - 4 - 0}{ 2 - 4} }[/tex]

[tex]\implies\rm{ \frac{ - 4}{ - 2} }[/tex]

[tex]\implies\rm{2}[/tex]

The slope is 2.

We are given two points: (4,0) and (2,-4)

We can use these two points to find the slope:

[tex]\huge\displaystyle{\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} }[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle{\frac{-4-0}{2-4}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle{\frac{-4}{-2} \\[/tex]

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf{Answer:2}}[/tex]
