Question

What is the slope of the line in the graph?A. -1B. -2C. 2D. 1

Answer 1

SOLUTION:

Step 1:

In this question, we are given the following:

From the graph, we can see that the two given points ( 0, -1) and ( 1 , 0 )

$Slope,\text{ m = }\frac{Increase\text{ in y - axis}}{Increase\text{ in x-axis}}$$Slope,\text{ m =}\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$$Slope,\text{ m =}\frac{0-(-1)}{1\text{ - 0}}=\frac{0+1}{1}=\frac{1}{1}=\text{ 1 \lparen OPTION D \rparen}$

CONCLUSION:

The slope of the line in the graph, m = 1 ( OPTION D )
