Question

PLEASE HELP WHAT IS THE SLOPE OF THIS LINE

Answer 1

Answer: A.
`(3)/(2)`

Explanation:

To find the slope we must find the change in y over the change in x. Δ

Or rise over run.
`(rise)/(run)`

In the graph, we have two "good" points. (0, -6) and (4,0)

So for Δy 0 to -6 = -6

So -6 goes on top
`(-6)/(x)`

Now Δx goes from 4 to 0 so the change would be -4.

So now it becomes
`(-6)/(-4)`

Since there are two negatives it becomes a positive.
`(6)/(4)` Or simply put,
`(3)/(2)`
