Question

What is the slope of the line that represents Function H? Show or explain how you got your answer

Answer 1

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is given by

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

we need two points

looking at the graph

we take

(-2,-5) and (4,4)

substitute in the formula

`\begin{gathered} m=(4-(-5))/(4-(-2))=(4+5)/(4+2)=(9)/(6) \\ simplify \\ m=(3)/(2) \end{gathered}`

The slope is 3/2
