Answer: It will not be spread out horizontally across the entire coordinate
plane because in Step 2, Jacob plotted Fahrenheit instead of Celsius on
the x-axis.
Jacob confused the values, the first coordinate of the ordered pairs (which corresponds to the x-axis) is in Celsius and he used it as Farenheit.
Slope = m
Equation to find slope is:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
2 points:
(4,-2) 4 = x1 and -2 = y1
(8,5) 8 = x2 and 5 = y2
So...
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = (5 - (-2)) / (8 - 4)
m = 7 / 4 or 1.75
Therefore, the slope of the line is 7/4 OR 1.75.
Answer: is not / is one x-value
