Look at the graph.
The graph shows a line through the points left parenthesis negative 1 comma negative 2 right parenthesis and left parenthesis 2 comma 1 right parenthesis.
The slope of the line is _______.
A. positive
B. negative
C. zero
D. undefined
I need help pls this is oddly confusing for me this morning.
A.
B.
A.
C.
D.
How about just saying:
The graph shows a line through the points (-1 , -2) and (2 , 1) ??
You just have to know how to find slope to have any success with
these kind of problems !
slope = (1 - (-2) )/(2 - (-1) )
= (1+2)/(2+1)
= 3/3
= 1
I got the answer A. Positive!!!
Yes, it is 1 which is +1 which is +
Ok thx
I am still confused 😐
What is the rest?
thanks @i am so funky you were 100% :)
To determine the slope of the line, you can use the formula:
slope = (change in y-coordinates) / (change in x-coordinates)
Let's calculate the changes in the coordinates based on the given points (-1,-2) and (2,1):
Change in y-coordinates = 1 - (-2) = 3
Change in x-coordinates = 2 - (-1) = 3
Now, substitute these values into the slope formula:
slope = 3 / 3 = 1
Based on the calculated slope of 1, the line has a positive slope.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. positive.
