Question

What table represents a liner function. What is the slope of the function?

Answer 1

Answer:

slope = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the slope m use the slope formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

Choose any 2 coordinate points from the table

let (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, - 16) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 4)

m = $\frac{4+16}{0+4}$ = $\frac{20}{4}$ = 5
