Question

The points in the table lie on a line. Find the slope of the line.

Answer 1

slope:
`(1)/(2)`

Explanation:

If we were to plot the first pair on a graph it would be (-2,3) and the next pair of points plotted would be (0,4). The intercepts are
`x^(1),x^(2)` and
`y^(1), y^(2)`. To find the slope of a line using pairs of plotted points, you need to use the slope formula
`(rise)/(run)` to solve this.

- write your formula

`(rise)/(run) : m=(y^(2)-y^(1) )/(x^(2)-x^(1) )`

- plug in your numbers

`m=(4-3)/(0-(-2))`

- solve

`m=(1)/(2)`

I hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer: y=4+2x i think
