Question

PLEASE HELP WHAT IS THE SLOPE OF THIS LINE

Answer 1

Answer: A. $\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope we must find the change in y over the change in x. Δ

Or rise over run.  $\frac{rise}{run}$

In the graph, we have two "good" points. (0, -6) and (4,0)

So for Δy 0 to -6 = -6

So -6 goes on top  $\frac{-6}{x}$

Now Δx goes from 4 to 0 so the change would be -4.

So now it becomes $\frac{-6}{-4}$

Since there are two negatives it becomes a positive. $\frac{6}{4}$ Or simply put, $\frac{3}{2}$
