Question

Find the gradient of lines A and B

Answer 1

Line A Gradient: 2

Lime B Gradient: -1

Explanation:

✔️Gradient for line A using two points on line A, (0, 1) and (1, 3):

`Gradient = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1) = (3 - 1)/(1 - 0) = (2)/(1) = 2`

Gradient of line A = 2

✔️Gradient for line B using two points on line B, (5, 0) and (3, 2):

`Gradient = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1) = (2 - 0)/(3 - 5) = (2)/(-2) = -1`

Gradient of line B = -1
