How to find the slope from a table of data

Mathematics

sammy [17]2 years ago

The slope of a linear line (or a linear equation) can be found by simply taking 2 values for x and y and then using the slope formula which is \frac{dy}{dx} or:

\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}

Example:

Let's say you're give this table:

x: 1, 2

y: 1, 2

Following the steps which I gave, you take 1 value for the y (preferably the larger one) which in this cause will be 2 and then another y from the table which would be 1

Do the same for x

Now plug the values taken in the slope formula and you get:

\frac{2 - 1}{2 - 1}

\frac{1}{1} = 1

Therefore the slope is 1.

Answer:

Rise/run

Rise over run.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope pick two perfect spots on the line when the coordinates are not decimals.

Then, take those  two points and figure out the distance. You will use rise/run.

so rise is how much you either go up or down and run is how much you either go right or left. so how much you'll go up or down? how much will you move right or left?

Lets say you have to go up 5 and then left 7 to get to the coordinate.

That's your slope! you went up so it's positive and you went left so it's negative. Rise over run : rise 5 left 7 so, 5 and -7 which is 5/-7 and that's your slope!

Passing through (1,9),slope=2
Natalka [10]
Passes through (1, 9) with a slope of 2.

Assuming that we want this in slope intercept form, which is y=mx+b (m=slope, b=y-intercept) then we need to find the y-intercept! :)

To find the y-intercept (or b!!) you simply need to plug everything into slope intercept form using our given points.

y = mx + b

Plug everything in.

9 = 2(1) + b

Simplify.

9 = 2 + b

Subtract 2 from both sides.

9 - 2 = b

b = 7

Therefore, our y-intercept is 7! :)

Now that we have both the y-intercept and the slope, we can finally plug this into a new equation, using slope intercept form.

y = mx + b

y = 2x + 7

Which number does NOT represent an integer? A. 3 B. 20.1 C. -10 D. 20/4​
guapka [62]

Answer:

the number doesnt represent an integer?

A. 3

B. 20.1

C. -10

D. 20/4​

Step-by-step explanation:

We call integers the “counting numbers, their negatives and zero”. I.e.  0,1,−1,2,−2,3,−3,.. etc.

non-integers means “everything except integers”. Which is not well-defined (i.e. nonsense). Why? Because nobody said what “everything” is.

Therefore, when somebody says “non-integer” he has to specify how he defines “everything”. In this case, our “everything” is probably “real numbers”.

Real numbers have an interesting definition concerning an abstract mathematical object called “field” . Let’s forget about that and let’s focus on a high school definition: Real numbers are probably all the numbers you know. They are those represented by a decimal and their negatives e.g.  345.232…  and  −243.13242240…  where there are “infinitely many” digits at the end. Note that  2.5  is also a real number. Integers are too. Basically, real numbers are the numbers used to measure distances and their negatives.

To summirize, your answer is the following:

“non integers” means everything except the integers, where everything is defined however we want. The most common definition of everything in this case is “real numbers” and therefore the most common interpretation of “non integers” is “reals which are not integers”.

Examples of “reals which are not integers”:  1.5,2.88,1.3333…  etc

the answer is

B. 20.1
