Question

What is the slope of 5 over the y-axis and 10 over the x-axis ?​

Answer 1

to get the slope of any straight line, all we need is two points off of it, let's use those ones in the picture below.

`(\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{6}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{6}-\stackrel{y1}{5}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{6}-\underset{x_1}{2}}}\implies \cfrac{1}{4}`
