Find the slopes of the following figures

@ganeshie8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you please help i'm unable to understand the graph format

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

knw the definition of `slope` ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

rate of change of angle y=mx+c

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes, but we use below : \(\large \text{slope} = \dfrac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

cuz it works well when u deal wid graphs

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Look at the first graph

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

where is it cutting the y axis ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2,1 and 4

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

not sure what u mean, but if u look at it, it is cutting the y axis 2 grids below that thick horizontal axis.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

and after running right for 1 grid, the line is rising up by 3 grids : \(\large \text{slope} = \dfrac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} = \dfrac{3}{1} = 3\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

leme knw if u have any questions :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you make this same graph in calculator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean demos calculator

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you can write the equation once u have the slope : \(\large y = mx + b\) since slope = \(m\) = 2 and y intercept = \(b\) = -2, the equation of line would be : \(\large y = 2x - 2\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

enter that in desmos, you will get the line in first graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help with the second

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

sure, tell me below : 1) where is the line cutting the `y axis` ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean the first graph that i had drawn can you help me in making it on demos calculator

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

for the first graph, just enter `y = 2x - 2` into desmos

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not getting the same graph

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

sorry i made a mistake

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

we got the slope = \(\color{Red}{3}\) , not 2, so the equation wud be : \(\large y = \color{red}{3}x - 2\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

try that and see^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think this one is right i dont know how can we reduce the boxes in the graph of demos calculator
