Question

I need help to find the slope in this table. Ignore the writing please. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Answer 1

The slope value for the given table is 13.

Explanation:

Step 1:

`slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)`, where
`x1,y1` are the first set of values and
`x2,y2` are the second set of values.

The given table has three sets of values so we can calculate two values of the slope.

Step 2:

To calculate the first slope value, we use the first and second sets of values.

The values are
`x1=3,y1=39` and
`x2=5,y2=65`.

The slope for the given values is;

`slope = (65-39)/(5-3)` =
`(26)/(2)` =
`13.`

The slope for the first set of given values is 13.

Step 3:

To calculate the second slope value, we use the second and third sets of values.

The values are
`x1=5,y1=65` and
`x2=8,y2=104`.

The slope for the given values is;

`slope = (104-65)/(8-5)` =
`(39)/(3)` =
`13.`

The slope for the second set of given values is 13.

So the slope for the given set of values is 13.
