Question

I need help on finding the slope from a table

Answer 1

To find the slope of the line represented on the given table we take two points and divide the difference on the y-axis by the difference on the x-axis:

`\text{Slope}=(3-3)/(0-2)=(0)/(-2)=0`

The slope of the given line is 0. This means that it is parallel to the x axis.

We are going to graph the points given in the table:

Now let's connect the points:

The slope can be seen as the number of units that the line goes up or down when moving one unit to the right.

In this case, if we start from any value of x and move one unit to the right, the line does not rise or fall, so its slope is 0.
