Find the slope of the line given its graph. (1 point) Responses 8 8 −18 negative Start Fraction 1 over 8 End Fraction 18 Start Fraction 1 over 8 End Fraction 1
The slope of the line given its graph is negative.
To find the slope of a line given its graph, you can use the formula:
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
First, we need to identify two points on the line. Let's choose two points labeled as (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).
Next, calculate the change in y by subtracting the y-coordinates of the two points:
change in y = y2 - y1
Similarly, calculate the change in x by subtracting the x-coordinates of the two points:
change in x = x2 - x1
Finally, plug the values of change in y and change in x into the formula to find the slope:
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
Please provide the coordinates of the two points on the line so I can help you further.
To find the slope of a line given its graph, you need to identify two points on the line. Let's call these points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂). Once you have these two points, you can use the slope formula, which is:
slope = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
In this case, you haven't provided the specific points on the line. However, I can still help you interpret the given responses.
The responses are: 8, 8, -18, negative, Start Fraction 1 over 8 End Fraction, 18, Start Fraction 1 over 8 End Fraction, 1.
If we assume that these responses are the y-coordinates of two points on the line, we can choose (x₁ = 18, y₁ = 1) and (x₂ = 8, y₂ = 8) as our points.
Now we can plug these values into the slope formula:
slope = (8 - 1) / (8 - 18)
slope = 7 / -10
slope = -7/10
Therefore, the slope of the line, based on the assumed points, is -7/10.
