How do you find the slope of the line that passes through the points (0,0) and (2,4)
1 answer:
To find the slope of a line that passes through the points (0,0) and (2,4), you need to find the rise over run, or the change in y over the change in x. To do this, you need to take both the y values and subtract one from the other, so in this case, subtract 4 from 0. This is your change in y, also known as the rise of your slope. Next you do the same for your x values, in this case you would subtract 2 from 0. This becomes your change in x, also known as the run of your slope. ( I included step by step equations below)
Slope = =
=
When you simplify your answer you get a slope of 2.
