Question

What is the slope of the line?

Answer 1

It's up 1 over 2.

Explanation:

Do y1 - y2 and x1 - x2 and that should give the answer. Also the x goes on the bottom.

Answer 2

`\boxed { (1)/(2) }`

Explanation:

We can find the slope by using rise over run.

Given the coordinate points that are part of the graph.

`(1,4) \\ ( - 1,3)`

`m = ( 4 - 3)/(1 - ( - 1)) \\ m = (1)/(1 + 1) \\ m = (1)/(2)`

Therefore the slope is 1/2.
