The graph below shows a line segment xy: graph of line segment xy with endpoints at negative 1 comma 3 and 1 comma negative 1 what is the slope of the line segment xy?

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line passing through two points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :-

Given : The endpoints of line segment XY = (-1,3) and (1,-1)

Then , the slope of the line segment XY will be :-

Hence, the slope of the line segment XY = -2

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.
