Question

Can you help me with this

Answer 1

Answer: The slope is 2.

Step-by-step explanation: To find the slope of a line, we first need to pick two points on a line. To solve this, I picked points (-2, -2) and (1, 4). The slope is rise over run, so you need to find the rise and run and divide.

We need to go 6 spaces up from (-2, -2) to get to (1, 4). This is our rise. Then, we go 3 spaces to the right. That is our run. 6 / 3 is 2, so that's your slope. Notice that if you cannot divide the rise and run into a whole number, keep it as a fraction instead.

Let me know if this is right! :)

Answer 2

slope = 2

Explanation:

calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m =
`(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )`

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 4) ← 2 points on the line

m =
`(4-0)/(1-(-1))` =
`(4)/(1+1)` =
`(4)/(2)` = 2
