Answer:

up 2

Explanation:

Slope tells us the steepness or flatness of a line. Slope is like directions from one point on a line to the next point on the line. Slope is a ratio. So it can always be written like a fraction. The top number says whether to go up or down. And the bottom number says to go left or right.

2 can be written 2/1. The 2 means go up 2. And the 1 means go over (right) 1.

Technically, 2 could also be written as -2/-1. In which case you go down 2 and back (left) 1. But your problem just asked about 2, so i think UP 2.
