Question

What is the slope of the line shown in the graph? Express your answer as an improper fraction or as an integer as appropriate. Show your work

Answer 1

Slope can be found between two points using the formula $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$.

If we substitute in your points (which is x and which is y does not matter as long as it is consistent), we will get

$\frac{(4-1)}{(2-0)}$.

Simplifying this further, your slope will be

$\frac{3}{2}$.

hope this helps!
