The slope of the line is equal to [tex]\tan \alpha,[/tex] where angle [tex]\alpha[/tex] is angle of line incline to the positive x-direction.

  • When [tex]\alpha[/tex] is acute, then slope is positive;
  • When [tex]\alpha[/tex] is obtuse, then slope is negative;
  • When [tex]\alpha[/tex] is right, then slope is undefined;
  • When [tex]\alpha[/tex] is zero, then slope is equal to 0.

In your case angle of inclination is obtuse and slope is negative.

Answer: correct choice is B

Answer:

The correct answer option is negative slope.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the line is sloping down from left to right, it means the slope has a negative value. It means that a negative change in y is related with a positive change in x.

A line going up from left to right has a positive slope.

A parallel line to x-axis (horizontal line) has a zero slope.

While a line parallel to y-axis (vertical line) has an undefined slope.
