Question

Needing help with getting the slope

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

I found 2 points and did y2-y1/ x2-x1 and got 2/5. And then I tested it and it worked.

Answer 2

Answer: the slope is 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining slope is expressed as

Slope = change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis

change in the value of y = y2 - y1

Change in value of x = x2 -x1

y2 = final value of y

y 1 = initial value of y

x2 = final value of x

x1 = initial value of x

Looking at the graph given,

y2 = 0

y1 = - 2

x2 = 5

x1 = 0

Slope = (0 - -2)/(0 - 0) = 2/5
