Question

What is the slope of the line?

Answer 1

y=
`(3)/(4)`x-1

Explanation:

You can find this since the y-intercept is negative 1 and every x, y goes up by
`(3)/(4)`

Answer 2

m= 3/4.

Explanation:

To find the slope, we will need to use two points. Looking at the graph, we can derive the points (4, 2) and (0, -1).

Plug these points into the slope formula:
`m= (y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1))` which becomes:

`m= (2+1)/(4-0)`

m= 3/4.

Therefore, the slope of the line is 3/4.
