Question

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (3, -2) and (9, -2)?

3
0
-3
undefined

Answer 1

I just gave you the slope formula, try and use it.

Answer 2

\[\frac{ y _{1}-y _{2} }{ x _{1}-x _{2} }\]

Answer 3

-2-(-2)/9-3
0/3
0

Answer 4

yep, because there is no change in y, it must be a horizontal line, so slope 0

Answer 5

can you help with this one too

The slope of the graph of a direct variation function is 4. What is the equation of the function?

y =1/4 x
y = 4x + 1
y = -4x
y = 4x

Answer 6

slope = change in y/change in x

Answer 7

No.

-2-(-2)/9-3 = -2 + 2/9 - 3 = -16/9 - 3 = -43/9

Now,

[-2-(-2)]/[9-3] = 0/6 = 0 The extra parentheses are NOT optional.

Answer 8

y=mx+b <--- equation of a line, m is the slope and b is the yintercept

Answer 9

direct variation is given by only
y=mx <---- m is the slope what do you think m should be?
