Question

Choose the correct slope of the line shown on the graph below.

Answer 1

identify two points on this line where each coordinate is a whole number

Answer 2

three halves

two thirds

−three halves

−two thirds

Answer 3

one point is (3, -3)

what's another one?

Answer 4

4,-4...?

Answer 5

no (4, -4) isn't on the line

however, the point (6, -1) is on the line

Answer 6

6, -1

Answer 7

so we have these 2 points:

(3, -3) and (6, -1)

Answer 8

so whats the answer?

Answer 9

start at (3,-3)

how many units must you move up to be on the same horizontal level as the point (6, -1)

Answer 10

uhh 6?

Answer 11

from -1 to -3 we have moved ____ units

Answer 12

3 to the right and 2 up

Answer 13

2

Answer 14

so the rise is 2

Answer 15

give her a prize!

Answer 16

we must move over 3 units to the right to land on (6, -1)

So the run is 3

Answer 17

rise = 2
run = 3

Answer 18

slope = rise/run

slope = 2/3
