Question

Find the slope of each line
please help i am confused,

Answer 1

Slope: 3

Explanation:

There are two ways to solve this, one is more algebraically, and one is more logically.

Algebraically:

When only a graph is available to us as a resource, we can use a method called rise-over-run, which looks like this
`(y)/(x)`.

Now, we select 2 points on the graph that are real integer values, meaning they aren't decimals. I will use (3,-2) and (4,1)

When we use rise-over-run we subtract the y-values and the x-values from each over before dividing.
`(1-(2))/(4-3) = 3/1=3`

Logically:

We can use something called a "slope triangle" to find the slope. We will connect the same 2 points mentioned before.

We will draw a triangle to the right of the two points. I will attach a screenshot.
