remember to read carefully and put the CORRECT ANSWER FOR EACH ONE

Let's go through each graph and determine the correct slope:

### A: 
- The line goes from the point (1, 9) to (9, 1).
- Slope formula is \(\text{slope} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\).
- Here, \(\frac{1 - 9}{9 - 1} = \frac{-8}{8} = -1\).

**Answer for A: -1**.

### B: 
- The line goes from (−4, 0) to (4, 5).
- Using the same formula: \(\frac{5 - 0}{4 - (-4)} = \frac{5}{8}\).

**Answer for B: \(\frac{5}{8}\)**.

### C: 
- The line moves from (−10, 10) to (4, 4).
- The slope: \(\frac{4 - 10}{4 - (-10)} = \frac{-6}{14} = \frac{-3}{7}\).

**Answer for C: \(-\frac{3}{7}\)**.

### D:
- The line moves from (1, 1) to (5, 9).
- The slope: \(\frac{9 - 1}{5 - 1} = \frac{8}{4} = 2\).

**Answer for D: 2**.

Would you like to clarify anything? Here are 5 questions to practice:

1. How is the slope formula used to determine the steepness of a line?
2. Can a slope be zero, and what does that represent?
3. What does a negative slope indicate about the direction of a line?
4. How do you interpret an undefined slope?
5. How can you check the correctness of a calculated slope?

**Tip:** Slope is the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change in a line.
