Question

90 POINTS: What is the slope of the line in the correct graph? What is the slope of the line in the incorrect graph? Are the slopes the same or different? First is correct, Second isn't

Answer 1

Answer:

Correct graph

$slope \frac{(175 - 105)}{(9 - 2)} \\ = \frac{70}{7} \\ = 10$

Incorrect graph

$slope = \frac{(175 - 105)}{(8 - 2)} \\ = \frac{70}{6} \\ = 11.7$

Slopes are not the same

Answer 2

The slope of the correct graph is 10 and the slope of the incorrect graph is 11.7. The slopes of both graphs are different.

Slope formula =  $y_{2}-y_{1} / x_{2}-x_{1}$

Writing the equation in correct graph:

Slope = 175 - 105 / 9 - 2

⇒ 70 / 7

⇒ 10

Slope of correct graph is 10.

Writing the equation in incorrect graph:

Slope = 175 - 105 / 8 - 2

⇒ 70 / 6

⇒ 11.7

Slope of incorrect graph is 11.7 .
