Question

What is the slope of the line on the graph

Answer 1

Slope = (6/1) or 6

Explanation:

(0, -1), (1, 5)

(x₁, y₁) (x₂, y₂)

y₂ - y₁ 5 - (-1) 5 + 1 6

m = ------------- = ------------- = ---------- = -------

x₂ - x₁ 1 - 0 1 1

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - (-1) = 6(x - 0)

y + 1 = 6x - 0

-1 -1

-----------------------

y = 6x - 1

I hope this helps!
