Question

What is the slope of this line? and can you provide me with the formula for the slope of the line too please?

Answer 1

slope = 1/2

Explanation:

The slope formula:

The slope of a line that passes through points
`(x_1, y_1)` and
`(x_2, y_2)` is

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

To find the slope, we find two easy-to-read points. Easy-to-read points are usually on grid line intersections.

Points (0, 0) and (2, 1) are on grid line intersections and are easy to read.

We will now input the information from our two points into the slope formula to calculate the slope.

`slope = m = (1 - 0)/(2 - 0) = (1)/(2)`
