Question

Jaclyn used the slope formula to find the slope of the line through the points given in the table. In which step did Jaclyn make an error?

A. In step 1, she switched the x and y values in point 2.
B. In step 2, she used the wrong formula for slope.
C. Jaclyn did not make an error.

Answer 1

Answer: C. Jaclyn did not make an error. I just worked on this on e2020

Answer 2

C.Jaclyn did not make an error.

Explanation:

We are given that Jaclyn used the slope formula to find the slope of the line through the points given in the table.

1.The points are (0,4) and (-3,0).

We have to find in which step Jaclyn make an error.

2.Slope formula :
`m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Substitute the values then we get

3.Slope:
`(0-4)/(-3-0)=(-4)/(-3)=(4)/(3)`

Hence, the slope =
`(4)/(3)`

Therefore, Jaclyn did not make an error.

Answer:C.Jaclyn did not make an error.
