a line intercepts at the y axis at -7. if one point on the line the line is (4,5), what is the slope of the line
Use rise/run U have to connect the point on the y axis to the x axis. So to this first see how we can go vertically and then horizontally. U have to go up 11, making it to a positive. Then you have to to go to the right, 12. So it is rise/run=11/12 Now divide 11/12=0.916666....
But is that the slope of the line?
Yes, I believe?
i have a list of answer choices and they are: -1/3 -3 1/3 3
Sorry but that's so far learned
@hartnn can you help me with this please
y=mx+c x=4, y=5, c=-7 fond m
find** m from 5=4m-7 can u ?
@student901210
u just add 7 to 5 and get 12 then divide by four. m=3
correct! :) the slope is indded =3
thanks
welcome ^_^
