slope $m = - 3$ $m=-3$

Given $(x_{1}, y_{1}) = (0, 4)$ $(x_1, y_1)=(0, 4)$
Given $(x_{2}, y_{2}) = (2, - 2)$ $(x_2, y_2)=(2, -2)$

Slope $m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} = \frac{- 2 - 4}{2 - 0} = - \frac{6}{2} = - 3$ $m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)=(-2-4)/(2-0)=-6/2=-3$

God bless....I hope the explanation is useful.

What is the slope of the line passing through the following points: ( 0,4), (2,-2)(0,4),(2,−2) ( 0,4), (2,-2)?
