Question

Look at this graph: 9 5 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 What is the slope?

Answer 1

To find the slope, pick the points and determine the coordinates.

Let's take the points:

(x1, y1) ==> (0, 7)

(x2, y2) ==> (3, 8)

Use the slope formula below to find the slope:

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

Substitute the values into the slope formula above:

`m=(8-7)/(3-0)=(1)/(3)`

Therefore, the slope is = ⅓

ANSWER:

`(1)/(3)`
