Question

What is the slope of the line?

Answer 1

3/1

Explanation:

You would count how far up it goes, with out it passing the dot (also know as the rise) which in this case is 3. Then you would count the number of space to go to the side (the run) so in this case it would be 1. Finally you would put rise over run and get 3/1.

Answer 2

Slope =
`(3)/(1)`

Explanation:

Slope Formula=
`(y_(2)-y_(1))/(x_(2)-x_(1))`

We take two point from the line that is (1,1) & (2,4)

Putting the points in the formula we get,

Slope Formula=
`(4-1)/(2-1) = 3`
