Question

What’s the slope?? Please help

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope of the line represented by the table is 2.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a linear function,

Slope of the line passing through two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is given by,

Slope = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Therefore, slope of the line passing through (0, 12) and (-2, 7) will be,

Slope = $\frac{12-7}{0-(-2)}$

          = $\frac{5}{2}$

          = 2.5

Therefore, slope of the line represented by the table is 2.5.
