@Hero

hero (hero):

Pick two points on the graph \((x_1, y_1)\) and \((x_2, y_2)\), then apply the slope formula \(m = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5/4? and it's okay

hero (hero):

Can you show your work please?

hero (hero):

Do you know how to pick two points from the graph of a line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

I think Hero's got it. Look at your graph, it gives you 2 points to use

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay it gives me a 4 and 8... what do I do?

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

It gives you (-1,4)(4,8) You use the slope formula Hero supplied you with

hero (hero):

Points are represented in the form (x,y). In other words, by an x-coordinate and a y-coordinate.
