OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm going to say A <>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right one unit, down how many?

Nnesha (nnesha):

line increasing = positive slope line decreasing = negative slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5 down

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\((0,4)\) go right one, get to \((1,?)\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes .

what is the second coordinate when \(x=1\)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right one, up how many?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1432423029244:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0 , right ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

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

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well I think its either A OR D

Nnesha (nnesha):

first of all tell me line is increasing or decreasing ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is decreasing

Nnesha (nnesha):

line decreasing = NEGATIVE slope line increasing = POSITIVE slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

increasing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol .

Nnesha (nnesha):

|dw:1432423393242:dw| if line is coming from 2nd quadrant to 4th quadrant then line is decreasing
