Question

You can find the rise by _ the Y-coordinate of the left point from the y-coordinate of the right point

Answer 1

Subtracting

Explanation:

We know that the slope of a line is given by the rise over run. where rise is vertical difference between two points and run is the horizontal distance between the points.

`\text{if }(x_1,y_1) \text{ and }(x_2,y_2)\text{ are two points on a line, then the}\\\text{slope of the line is given by}\\\\\text{Slope, }m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)\\\\\text{since slope}=\frac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}}, \text{ so Rise}=y_2-y_1\\\\\text{so we can find the rise by subtracting the Y-coordinate of the left point }\\\text{from the y-coordinate of the right point}.`
