Question

which of the following properly describes "slope"? select all that apply. A. y2 - y1/ x2 - x1 B. x2-x1/y2-y1 C. run/rise D. rise/run E. ratio of change in y values (rise) for a segment of the graph to the corresponding change in x values (run)

Answer 1

The formula to calculate the slope is

`m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)`

A is right

also, the slope can be calculated with rise and run

`m=(rise)/(run)`

the correct formula is D.

and also apply E

the answer will be A,D and E
