Question

What is the slope of the line.

Answer 1

`y=(3)/(4) x-1\\` is the slope

step by step explaination: the line starts at -1 so that is the y-intercept. then you look for points on the graph that the line crosses which happens to be

(4, 2) and that's it.

Answer 2

3/4

Explanation:

Start from the y-intercept (-1). Find another point that is on the line. I am using the point (0, -1) and also (4, 2).

Next, use the slope form, rise over run. In this case, you can also use the formula (y² - y¹) / (x² - x¹).

Plug in the values, and you get 3/4. So, the slope is 3/4.

Also, you can count from one point of the line up and to the right in this problem to find the slope.
