The data in the table illustrate a linear function 0 2 4 6 y5-214 What is the slope of the linear function ? Which graph represents the data ? (1 point )
The slope of a linear function can be found by taking the difference in y-values divided by the difference in x-values between any two points on the graph.
Using points (0,5) and (6,-214), we can calculate the slope as follows:
Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Slope = (-214 - 5) / (6 - 0)
Slope = -219 / 6
Slope = -36.5
Therefore, the slope of the linear function is -36.5.
As for the graph that represents the data, it would be a straight line passing through points (0,5) and (6,-214) with a negative slope of -36.5.
