Question

Problem is attached in the picture.

Answer 1

slope = rise/ run

Pick up the 2 points given. I suggest you start with the point on the x-axis. Count how many units it needs to go up. Put that number over how many units you need to "run" to reach the second point.

Answer 2

Remember that the slope of a line "m" is equal to the change in y divided by the change in x or "rise over run"

In this case we see the line crosses the y-axis at y=4, and the x-axis at x=-5.

so we know that \[m=-(4/5)\]

Answer 3

(-5,0),(0,4)\[m=\frac{y_{2}-y _{1}}{x _{2}-x _{1}}\]\[m=\frac{4-0}{0-(-5)}\]\[m=\frac{4}{5}\]
sope is positive not negative abstracted

Answer 4

m=4/5=0.8

Answer 5

slope positive not negative
negative is wrong
