Question

What is slope ? Help me please

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's pick two points on the line.

    I am going to pick (10, 10) and (40, 20) as they are easier to read.

Slope is rise over run, or in other words, change in y over change in x.

    Let's do the math:

$\frac{change.in.y}{change.in.x} =\frac{20-10}{40-10} =\frac{10}{30} =\frac{1}{3}$

    So, the slope is $\frac{1}{3}$ which we can also check by looking at the graph, find a point then move up and over three!

Have a nice day!

    I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)
