Question

i need to find the slope of a graph

Answer 1

where is the graph..?

Answer 2

there it is

Answer 3

see...at what value it touches x-axis and y-axis...

tell me.?

Answer 4

what do you mean

Answer 5

see the graph at what point it croses x-axis and y-axis..?

Answer 6

negative 6 and 4 i think

Answer 7

ummm///see it touches x-axis at -6 so x=-6
and touches y-axis at 4 so y= 4

now to find slope...formula is..

m=slope=-y/x=-4/-6=2/3

Answer 8

ooo ok i see now

Answer 9

but like are you sure those are the numbers

Answer 10

yuppp...

Answer 11

is that i dont have that answer on my choices

Answer 12

It goes up 4 times and to the side 5 times to get from the first point to the second.

So your slope is \[\frac{ 4 }{ 5 }\]

One way to tell if it is positive 4 or negative 4 is is the line goes up you will have a positive slope. If the line goes down you will have a negative slope.
