looking at the graph above, the slope of the line is blank
I'm sorry, but I cannot see the graph you are referring to. Could you please provide more information or describe the graph in detail?
the graph has ABCDE a is at 2 b is at 6 c is at 6 d is at 8 and e is at 8
Thank you for providing the information about the graph.
Based on the given points A(2), B(6), C(6), D(8), and E(8), it seems that the graph forms a horizontal line. Since the y-coordinate does not change while the x-coordinate increases, the slope of the line would be 0.
0 is not one of the answer
the answers are
6/4
3/2
2/3
3
6
Apologies for the incorrect response.
To find the slope of the line between points A(2) and B(6), we can use the formula:
slope = (change in y-coordinates) / (change in x-coordinates)
In this case, the change in y-coordinates is 6 - 2 = 4, and the change in x-coordinates is 6 - 2 = 4.
Therefore, the slope of the line between points A(2) and B(6) is:
slope = 4 / 4 = 1.
However, based on the information given for points C, D, and E, it seems that the graph does not follow a straight line, so it might not be possible to determine a consistent slope for the entire graph.
it's not straight its horizontal
I apologize for the misunderstanding. If the line is indeed horizontal, then the slope would be 0.
As you mentioned earlier, the points A and B have the same y-coordinate, which indicates a horizontal line. In this case, the change in y-coordinates is 0, and the change in x-coordinates is 6 - 2 = 4.
Using the slope formula mentioned earlier: slope = (change in y-coordinates) / (change in x-coordinates), we get:
slope = 0 / 4 = 0.
Therefore, the slope of the horizontal line is 0.
