Find the slope of the line represented by the table of values.
Values:
X: -2, -1, 0, 1, 2
Y: 5, 4.75, 4.5, 4.25, 4
Answer Choices:
-4, -1/4 4, 1/4
To find the slope of the line represented by the table of values, we can use the formula for finding the slope between two points, which is given by:
m = (change in Y) / (change in X)
Let's choose two points from the table, (-2, 5) and (2, 4), to calculate the slope:
change in Y = 4 - 5 = -1
change in X = 2 - (-2) = 4
m = -1/4
Therefore, the slope of the line represented by the table of values is -1/4.
