MrMudd183:

What do you think it is?

Downpour17:

m=-2, b=3

MrMudd183:

almost, the rise is up two while the run is correct. do you know what the formula for slope equals?

Downpour17:

I do not. Doesn't it come out to a division problem?

MrMudd183:

not quite. the formula for slope is Y=MX+B where Y is the y-intercept, M is the Y axis point and B is the X axis point

MrMudd183:

so you're rising up two and going over three, using the table....the first x is -4, then a -2 the first y is -5, then a -2

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @MrMudd183 not quite. the formula for slope is Y=MX+B where Y is the y-intercept, M is the Y axis point and B is the X axis point \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) good job use formula

Downpour17:

So it'd be m=3/2, b=1?

MrMudd183:

correct, i would try plugging that into a graphing calculator such as desmos and use the info given in the table to compare if the slopes are parrallel, then it's correct use different colors for the seperate group of info

Downpour17:

Thank you Mr. Mudd.
