Question

What is the slope of the line shown?

A. slope = 3
B. slope = 1/2
C. slope = 2
D. slope = -3

Answer 1

The answer is B - 1/2.

Explanation:

Rise over run tells you the slope. You take two points (in this it's (0,-3) and (6,0)) and you see how many units it takes to be on the same y line as the other point. Then you do the same for the x line. You divide the rise (y line) by the run (x line) and that's your slope.

Answer 2

i think it’s 1/2, you have to count the rise over run from a point to the next, so it would go one up and then two over
