Math Problem Statement
find the gradient from a g
Solution
To find the gradient (slope) of the straight line from point A to point G, we need to use the formula for the gradient of a line between two points:
Where and are the coordinates of points A and G respectively.
Let's first extract the coordinates of points A and G from the grid.
- From the image, I can observe the coordinates of points A and G.
- Point A seems to be at coordinates (0, 3).
- Point G seems to be at coordinates (5, 0).
Now, substituting these coordinates into the gradient formula:
Therefore, the gradient of the line from A to G is .
Would you like further clarification on the process, or do you have any other related questions? Here are some further questions you could explore:
- How do you find the gradient between two points on a line?
- What are the conditions for a line to be parallel or perpendicular to another?
- How would the gradient change if the coordinates of the points were different?
- What is the relationship between the gradient and the angle of a line?
- How do you calculate the gradient from the slope-intercept form of a line?
Tip: When calculating gradients on a grid, always pay attention to the grid scale and ensure the points are accurately plotted!
