Question

Look at this graph:

What is the slope?

Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

Answer 1

Ok so I took two points, one in the t axis and one random one that didn’t have a decimal. (0,70) (40,80)

M=y2-y1/x2-x1

M= 70-80/0-40

M= -10/-40 or 1/4

Use rise/run and that would be the slope.

Answer 2

1/3, Slope is Rise over Run. Rises 10 runs 30, which makes it 10/30 or 1/3.
