Question

What is the slope of the line on the graph ?

Answer 1

1/2

Explanation:

Slope is rise over run. Starting from (0, 2), go up and move right until you reach another point. So you go up 1 unit and move right 2 units.

Answer 2

1/2

Explanation:

We find two points on the line

(-4,0) and (0,2)

We can find the slope using

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

=(2-0)/(0 - -4)

=(2-0)/(0+4)

= 2/4

1/2
