Question

3. What is the slope of a line that passes through (0,-5) and (8,27)?

Answer 1

Answer:

4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = difference in y coordinates / difference in the corresponding x coordinates

(27 - (-5)) / (8 - 0)

= 32 / 8

= 4.

Answer 2

Answer: Well, The entered points belong to an increasing, linear function.

Equation: y = 2.75x + 5.

You're key in this will be y=mx+b right?

Then you're M in y=mx+b is your slope. Therefore, if we take a look at our M in the slope we got,.....y = 2.75x + 5......it's-

2.75.

So you're slope is y= 2.75x      

I'm not that great at explaining but yeah, i tried lolz :3
