The data in the table illustrate a linear function 0 2 4 6 y 5-21 4 What is the slope of the linear function? Which graph represents the data? (1 point) 8 4 - 2/3 848
The slope of the linear function can be calculated by finding the change in y divided by the change in x between any two points in the data.
Using the points (0, 5) and (6, 4):
Change in y = 4-5 = (-1)
Change in x = 6-0 = 6
Therefore, the slope of the linear function is:
Slope = change in y / change in x = -1 / 6 = -1/6
The graph that represents the data would be the graph with a slope of -1/6.
