Jaclyn used the slope formula to find the slope of the line through the points given in the table.

A 2-column table with 2 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 0, negative 3. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 4, 0.

1. Point 1: (0, 4); Point 2: (negative 3, 0). 2. Slope = StartFraction y 2 minus y 1 Over x 2 minus x 1 EndFraction = StartFraction 0 minus 4 Over negative 3 minus 0 EndFraction = StartFraction negative 4 Over negative 3 EndFraction. 3. Slope = four-thirds.

In which step did Jaclyn make an error?
In step 1, she switched the x and y values in point 2.
In step 2, she used the wrong formula for slope.
In step 3, she simplified the slope incorrectly.
Jaclyn did not make an error.

Answer:

Jaclyn made an error in step 1.

Step 1 states:

"Point 1: (0, 4); Point 2: (negative 3, 0)."

However, Jaclyn switched the x and y values for Point 2. The correct coordinates for Point 2 should be (-3, 0), not (0, -3).

Correcting this, the slope formula should correctly use the coordinates:

Point 1: (0, 4)

Point 2: (-3, 0)

So, the error occurred in step 1 where Jaclyn incorrectly stated the coordinates of Point 2. Therefore, the correct answer is:

In step 1, she switched the x and y values in point 2.
