Question

Which graph shows a line with a slope of 3?

Answer 1

Answer:

The first graph shows a slope of 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the slope is 3, it's actually 3/1 because of rise/run. So you find any point on the graph that's directly between two lines, like (-1,-5). Since the line is positive, you would go right one and up three. Then you see if that point is directly between two lines. The next point is (0, -2). If you did the same on the second graph, it wouldn't match up.
