Question

Using the graph, determine the value of the slope. What is the slope?

Answer 1

The slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes both the direction and the steepness of the line.[1] Slope is often denoted by the letter m; there is no clear answer to the question why the letter m is used for slope, but its earliest use in English appears in O'Brien (1844)[2] who wrote the equation of a straight line as "y = mx + b" and it can also be found in Todhunter (1888)[3] who wrote it as "y = mx + c".[4]

Answer 2

Answer: the slope is the fraction value that a line goes up by written in rise over run form

Step-by-step explanation: for example, if a line has a slope of 1/1, that means it rises one unit, and moves right one unit. you can simply find slope by counting how many units a line rises, and goes over by to find your slope!
