Question

Finding the Slope of a Line on a Grapn

What is the slope of the line on the graph?
1
O1 1/2
O 2
O3

Answer 1

2 bc u just do change in y over the change in x. Start from a point and go down then go to the left.

Answer 2

Algebra I

• Slope Formula:
  `m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Find points from graph.

Point (0, 3)

Point (-3, -3)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m.

1. Substitute [SF]:
   `m=(-3-3)/(-3-0)`
2. Subtract:
   `m=(-6)/(-3)`
3. Divide:
   `m=2`
