Question

Find the following slope of the following graph and enter your result.

Answer 1

To find the slope of the graph, take the following points on the graph:

(x1, y1) ==> (50, 40)

(x2, y2) ==> (60, 70)

Now, use the slope formula below:

$m\text{ = }\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

Thus, we have:

$\begin{gathered} m=\frac{70-40}{60-50} \\ \text{ } \\ m\text{ = }\frac{30}{10} \\ m\text{ =3} \end{gathered}$

The slope of the graph is 3.

ANSWER:

3
