Question

Characterize the slope of the line in the graph

Answer 1

Answer:

Please check the attached graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: You did not add the graph; so I am taking a sample graph to clear the concept anyway. Please check the referred graph attached below.

The slope on the graph basically tells us the time rate of change.

• In other words, it describes the steepness of a straight line.

The slope can also be termed as:

• Slope = rise / run

From the attached graph, taking twp points

• (0, 3)

• (-1, 0)

Finding the slope between (0, 3) and (-1, 0) using the formula

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(0,\:3\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(-1,\:0\right)$

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

$m=\frac{0-3}{-1-0}$

$m=3$

Thus, the slope of the given line on the graph = m = 3
