Question

What is the slope of this line ?

Answer 1

m = 1.75 OR m = 7/5 in fraction form

Explanation:

take any two points from the graph and plug them into the formula of slope.

slope = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

Answer 2

The slope of this line is 7/4 or 1.74 in decimal form.

m = 7/4 OR m = 1.75

Explanation:

slope = y^2 - y^1 / x^2 - x^1

Let's pick any two points from the graph: (-1, -3) and (3, 4)

m = y^2 - y^1 / x^2 - x^1

m = 4 - (-3) / 3 - (-1)

m = 4 + 3 / 3 + 1

m = 7/4

m = 1.75
