2.
What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-3, 4) and (2, -1)?

Recall the slope formula: Slope = \frac{rise}{run}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

8.
Categorize: Place each equation (all written in slope-intercept form) into the correct category.
  • y=-5x
  • y=3.71x
  • y=\frac{5}{4}x+17
  • y=-\frac{2}{3}x
  • y=3x+2
  • Direct variation
  • NOT direct variation
