Question

Find the slope line that goes through the following points

Answer 1

B and D

Explanation:

to calculate the slope m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

(4)

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 1) ← 2 points from table

m =
`(-1+4)/(3-0)` =
`(3)/(3)` = 1 → B

(5)

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 5) ← 2 points from table

m =
`(5+4)/(2+1)` =
`(9)/(3)` = 3 → D
