Question

I NEED HELP IDENTIFYING THE SLOPE PLEASE !!! Pic attatched !!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = 2,4 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, 1)

m = $\frac{1-4}{5-2}$  = $\frac{-3}{3}$ = - 1 ← negative slope

Repeat

with (x₁, y₁ ) = - 7,8) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 7, 0)

m = $\frac{0-8}{-7+7}$ = $\frac{-8}{0}$

Division by zero is undefined, thus slope is undefined.

Repeat with

(x₁, y₁ ) = (6, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 4, - 3)

m = $\frac{-3+3}{-4-6}$ = $\frac{0}{-10}$ = 0 ← zero slope

Repeat with

(x₁, y₁ ) = (3, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 1, 2)

m = $\frac{2-5}{-1-3}$ = $\frac{-3}{-4}$ = $\frac{3}{4}$ ← positive slope
