Question

Find the slope of the line on the graph below

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{6}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is $\frac{6}{5}$ because rise/run. You rise up on the graph 6 units, and run 5 units to the right (if the graph went to the left), then your slope would be negative.

Another way to double check this is using the slope formula: $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }$.

(-3, -3) is x1, y1. & (2, 3) is x2, y2.

So, plugging that into the formula, we get:

$\frac{3-(-3)}{2-(-3)}$ =  $\frac{6}{5}$.

Hope that this helped. Have a good day! ☺
