Algebra I

• Slope Formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Find points from graph.

Point (0, 3)

Point (10, 8)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

1. Substitute [SF]:                    $m=\frac{8-3}{10-0}$
2. Subtract:                              $m=\frac{5}{10}$
3. Simplify:                               $m=\frac{1}{2}$

Answer 2

Answer:

slope = $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (10, 8) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{8-3}{10-0}$ = $\frac{5}{10}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$
