Question

Find the gradient of the line passing through the points (– 2,– 4) and (3,5).

Answer 1

Answer is 9/5
You can count the rise/run on the graph or use slope formula (y2-y1) over (x2 -x1)

5-(-4) over 3-(-2) = 9/5

Answer 2

Gradient of the line is choice D.9/5

Explanation:

Hello!

Slope between two points:slope=(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

• (x₁.y₁)=(-2,-4)
• (x₂.y₂)=(3,5)

slope(m)=

`(5 - ( - 4))/(3 - ( - 2)) \\ refine \: (m )= (9)/(5)`
