Question

1) The graph of a bicycle ramp contains the points (-6,0) and (3,3). What is 5 points

the slope of the ramp? *

Answer 1

`(1)/(3)`

Explanation:

It was given that, the graph of the bicycle ramp contains the points (-6,0) and (3,3).

We want to find the slope.

We use the formula:

`m = (y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

We substitute the points into the formula to get;

`m = (3 - 0)/(3 - - 6)`

`m = (3)/(3 + 6)`

Add in the denominator

`m = (3)/(9) = (1)/(3)`

The slope of the ramp is 1/3.
