The graph shows the number of laps that Jan runs as her coach times her.

andriy [413]

Slope formula : (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(2,4)...x1 = 2 and y1 = 4
(5,10)...x2 = 5 and y2 = 10
now we sub and solve
slope = (10 - 4) / (5 - 2) = 6/3 = 2

The slope of the line is 2....and this is basically saying that Jan runs 2 laps every minute
