Question

Find the slope on the graph

Answer 1

Slope is 1/4

Explanation:

Count the rise over run from somewhere the line is matched up with a whole point, like 20 or 60. The next place the point is a whole (if starting from 20) is 60. Run is 4. The Rise from 20 to 60 is 1

Answer 2

`\frac14`

Explanation:

Hello!

Slope can be calculated by the formula
`(Rise)/(Run)`.

• Rise is the change in y between two points
• Run is the change in x between two points

We need two points to calculate the slope.

The two points I'm picking are (20,10) and (60,20)

Calculate the Slope

• Change in y (10 and 20) is 10
• Change in x (20 and 60) is 40.

Plugging it into the formula:

• 
  `(10)/(40)`
• 
  `\frac14`

The slope is
`\frac14`.
