Question

What is the slope of the line that contains these points. X -4 -3 -2 -1 Y 2 5 8 11

Answer 1

Answer:

m= $\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

    In order to get your you can do it 2 ways: 1). $\frac{rise}{run}$ which is how far up you go (rise) over how far left or right you go (run).    2). $\frac{x2-x1}{y2-y1}$ which is pick two values and you subtract your second pair from your first pair. You get the same answer either way. In this case, the slope is 1 over 3 or 1/3.
