The slope of a line is the change in the y values over the corresponding x values.
The slope of the line that passes through (3, 4) and (4,1) is -3
Given that:
[tex](x_1,y_1) = (3,4)[/tex]
[tex](x_2,y_2) = (4,1)[/tex]
The slope (m) is calculated using:
[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]m = \frac{1-4}{4-3}[/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{-3}{1}[/tex]
[tex]m = -3[/tex]
Hence, the slope is -3.
