Question

The graph of a linear function is shown. A coordinate plane with a straight line. The line starts at (negative 5, negative 1) and continues up and to the right passing through (0, 0) and (5, 1). Which word describes the slope of the line? positive negative zero undefin

Answer 1

The linear function is represented by the straight line, and the word that describes the slope of the line is positive

What is a linear function?

A linear function is an equation that has a constant rate or slope

The points on the lines are given as:

(x,y) = (-5,-1), (0,0) and (5,1)

The slope is then calculated using:

$m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}$

This gives

m = (0 + 1)/(0 + 5)

Evaluate

m = 0.2

The above slope is positive.

Hence, the word that describes the slope of the line is positive
