Question

Find the slope of the line below. If necessary, use a slash ( / ) to indicate a division bar.

Answer 1

no line here. But the slope is the change in y divided by the change in x
start at a point. count up (or down) to get to the level of the second point. that is the change in y. count over to get the change in x.

Answer 2

here is the graph

Answer 3

so start at the first point at (-1,-4). how far up do you have to go to get the the 2nd point?

Answer 4

I think 3 idk

Answer 5

do you see the tick marks on the y-axis? count up using those.

Answer 6

nine

Answer 7

are you sure? I see 8

Answer 8

You count how many steps up (so the first tick mark does not count)
think if you were walking, how many steps?

Answer 9

now count how many tick marks on the x-axis to get from the 1st point to the 2nd point

Answer 10

the slope will be how far up divided by how far over
you got 8 for how far up. what about how far over?
