Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Mark two points on the line in the graph.
2) Determine the rise and run. Rise ---> difference in y-coordinates. (y2-y1)
Run -----> difference in x-coordinates (x2 - x1)
3) Plugin the values in the below mentioned formula.
1.If slope = 0, then the line is parallel to x-axis.
2. If slope is undefined, then the line is parallel to y-axis.
3. If slope is +ve, then the line slant upwards and if slope = -ve, then the line slant downwards.
