Math Problem Statement
Find the slope
Find the slope of the line in the graph.
Solution
To find the slope of the line in the graph, we can use the formula for slope:
where and are two points on the line. Let's select two points from the graph:
- Point 1:
- Point 2:
Now, applying these values to the slope formula:
So, the slope of the line is 1.
Would you like further details or clarification on how this slope was calculated?
Here are 5 related questions to deepen understanding:
- What does the slope of 1 tell you about the steepness of the line?
- How would the graph change if the slope were -1 instead?
- What would the slope be if the line were vertical?
- How can you find the y-intercept from this graph?
- How does the equation of this line look in slope-intercept form ?
Tip: The slope represents the rate of change of with respect to , so a slope of 1 means that for every unit increase in , increases by the same amount.
