Question

What is the slope of the line shown interpreting slope item 21021

Answer 1

The slope of the line shown in this graph include the following: B. slope = 1/2.

In Mathematics and Geometry, the slope of any straight line can be determined by using the following mathematical equation;

Slope (m) = (Change in y-axis, Δy)/(Change in x-axis, Δx)

Slope (m) = rise/run

`Slope(m)=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

From the information provided in the graph, we have the following points on the line:

Points = (2, -2).

Points = (6, 0).

By substituting the given points into the formula, we have;

Slope, m = (0 + 2)/(6 -2)

Slope, m = 2/4

Slope, m = 1/2
