Question

A line has a rise of 6 and a slope of 1/20. Find the run of the line. Type a numerical answer in the space provided. If necessary, use the / key to represent a fraction bar.

Answer 1

y=0.05x+6

6 is the y intercept

.05 or 1/20 is the slope

Answer 2

120 is the run of the line

Explanation:

Hello, i think I can help you with this

By definition , the slope of a line is given by:

slope(m)=Δy/Δx

where m is the slope, Δy is the rise, and Δx is the run

Step 1

isolate the run (Δx)

m=Δy/Δx

m=Δy/Δx

m*Δx=Δy

Δx=Δy/m

step 2

pute the values into the formula

Let

Δy=6

m=1/20

Δx=Δy/m

Δx=6÷(1/20)

Δx=120

the run of the line is 120
