Question

Finding the slope:
Identify the slope on the graph below.​

Answer 1

3/2 is the slope of the graph

Answer 2

`\frac32`

Explanation:

Hello!

Slope can be calculated by
`(Rise)/(Run)`.

• The Rise of the graph is how much the graph changes in y between two points.
• The Run of the graph is how much the graph changes in x between two points.

I'll pick points (0,-2) and (2,1) on the graph.

You can see that the difference in y (-2 and 1) is 3 units.

The difference in x (0 and 2) is 2 units.

Put it into the format and you get a slope of
`\frac32`.
