Question

Look at this graph:

Answer 1

Answer:

3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope=rise/run=30/20=3/2

Answer 2

Answer:

The Slope is $\frac{2}{3}$

Explanation:

Notice that both the points, $(0,20)$ and $(20,50)$, are on the line. So we can use those points to calculate the slope. Recall that that slope of the line $m$ can be calculated by $\frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}$ if we have the points, $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$.

Calculating for the slope of the line:

Given:

$(0,20)$

$(20,50)$

$m = \frac{50 -20}{20 -0} \\ m = \frac{30}{20} \\ m = \frac{2}{3}$
