Question

What is the slope of the graph?

Answer 1

Answer: 5/2... I know this because we use rise/run and it has a rise of 5 and a run of 2. Hope this helps! Good luck. :)

Explanation:

Answer 2

`\displaystyle m=(5)/(2)`

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

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Find points from graph.

Point (0, -5)

Point (2, 0)

Step 2: Find slope m

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

1. Substitute in points [SF]:
   `\displaystyle m=(0--5)/(2-0)`
2. [Fraction] Simplify:
   `\displaystyle m=(0+5)/(2-0)`
3. [Fraction] Add/Subtract:
   `\displaystyle m=(5)/(2)`
