Find the slope of the line given its graph
(1 point)
9
9
D
The slope of the line given its graph is 9.
To find the slope of the line given its graph, we need to identify two points on the line. However, based on the image and the step-by-step list provided, there is no clear set of points that can be identified on the graph. Please provide more specific information or a clear image of the graph to determine the slope.
To find the slope of the line given its graph, we need to determine the change in y-coordinates divided by the change in x-coordinates.
Looking at the image, we see that the line is going downwards from left to right. This indicates that the slope is negative.
To calculate the slope, we need to choose two points on the line. Let's select the points (1, 9) and (9, -7). The coordinates of the first point represent (x, y), and the second point represents (x, y). We can calculate the change in y-coordinates and the change in x-coordinates.
Change in y-coordinates = y2 - y1 = -7 - 9 = -16
Change in x-coordinates = x2 - x1 = 9 - 1 = 8
Now, we can calculate the slope using the formula:
Slope = (Change in y-coordinates) / (Change in x-coordinates)
= -16 / 8
= -2
Therefore, the slope of the line given its graph is -2.
