find the slope of each equation
I will do one for you.
Take the second..
slope=(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)=(15-75)/(1-5)=60/4=15
To find the slope of each equation, we can use the formula for slope:
Slope = (change in y-values) / (change in x-values)
Let's start with question 1:
For the given data:
x: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
y: 15, 30, 45, 60, 75
We can calculate the change in y-values and change in x-values:
Change in y-values = 30 - 15 = 15
Change in x-values = 2 - 1 = 1
Now, we can calculate the slope:
Slope = (Change in y-values) / (Change in x-values)
Slope = 15 / 1
Slope = 15
Therefore, the slope of the equation in question 1 is 15.
Now, let's move on to question 2:
For the given data:
x: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
y: 15, 30, 45, 60, 75
Again, we calculate the change in y-values and change in x-values:
Change in y-values = 30 - 15 = 15
Change in x-values = 2 - 1 = 1
And we calculate the slope:
Slope = (Change in y-values) / (Change in x-values)
Slope = 15 / 1
Slope = 15
Therefore, the slope of the equation in question 2 is also 15.
In both cases, the slope is 15.
