Question

Mental Math Using the slope​ formula, find the slope of the line through the points and . Use pencil and paper. Explain how you can use mental math to find the slope of the line. slope is 0,0 and 2,4

Answer 1

Answer:Slope is 2, assuming "0,0 and 2,4" is meant to read (0,0) and (2,4) for the 2 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the Rise (change in y) over the Run (change in x).  I can see the change in y is 4 (it goes from 0 to 4) and the change in x for this interval is 2 (goes from 0 to 2, or 2-0 = 2).  Rise (4) over Run (2) is slope 2.  4/2 = 2 slope.
