Question

Any help please, Question below.

Answer 1

The slope with the equation is 1/5 and the slope of the table is 2/1 or 2

Answer 2

No, the slope with the equation is 1/5 and the slope of the table is 2/1 or 2

Explanation:

Slope is the change in y over the change in x.

Equation

y = mx + b when an equation is written in the slope intercept form of a line, the m is the slope.

y =
`(x)/(5)` - 3 can be writing

y =
`(1)/(5)` x - 3 It is easier to see that the slope is
`(1)/(5)`

Table

Look at the y's. The are change by 2 each time. Now, look at the x's. They are changing by 1 each time. So, the slope is:

`(2)/(1)` or just 2
