Question

What is the gradient of the line that passes through the points (0,0) and (3,3)?

Answer 1

1

Explanation:

the gradient is a value that indicates how much the x value increases as the y value increases. It can be written as

rise/run

or

change in y value/change in x value

or

(y1-y2)/(x1-x2), where we know two coordinates (x1,y1) and (x2,y2).

We have two coordinates (0,0) and (3,3)

Therefore,

x1 = 0, y1 = 0

x2 = 3, y2 = 3

If we plug these values into the formula, it is
`(3-0)/(3-0) = (3)/(3) = 1`
