Answer:The answer is -\dfrac{1}{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:  The given equation is

y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x+\dfrac{1}{4}.

We know that the slope-intercept form of a straight line is given by

y=mx+c,

where, 'm' is the slope and 'c' is the y-intercept of the line.

Comparing the given equation with the slope-intercept form, we get

m=-\dfrac{1}{2},~~\textup{and}~~c=\dfrac{1}{4}.

Thus, the slope of the given line is -\dfrac{1}{2}.

  You basically dilate the slope of y to the slope of x by the same scale factor at which all the sides of the triangles are dilated or increased/decreased by.

Find the rate of change for a linear function that passes through the points (-5, 1) and (1, 10).
Lyrx [107]
The slope of the function for rise/run would be 3/2, this is because;
The function passes through (-5,1) and (1,10). Lets find the change on the y and x axis.
For the x axis;
-5 to 1.
That is a change of positive 6.
-5+6=1
For the y axis;
1 to 10.
That is a change of positive 9.
1+9=10
For the slope we must put rise (change in y axis) over run (change in x axis) to get 3/2 when simplified from 9/6.
For every 2 units of rise in the x axis the y axis rises by 3.

Multiply the numerators together and the denominators to get the ending fraction.

Ex: 3/4 x 3/4 = 9/16, and simplify if needed.
