To find the slope of a line given its graph, we need to determine the change in y-values divided by the corresponding change in x-values.
-1/8: This is the slope of the line when the graph is moving downwards from left to right.
8: This is not the slope of the line. It appears to be the y-intercept of the line, which represents the point where the line crosses the y-axis.
1/8: This is the slope of the line when the graph is moving upwards from left to right.
1: This is also not the slope of the line. It appears to be the slope when the graph is moving upwards, but it doesn't represent the actual rate of change.
Therefore, the correct answer is 1/8.
To find the slope of a line given its graph, we need to choose two points on the line and use the formula for slope, which is (change in y)/(change in x).
Let's choose two points on the line to calculate the slope.
Point 1: (-1, 8)
Point 2: (1, 0)
(change in y) = 0 - 8 = -8
(change in x) = 1 - (-1) = 2
Therefore, the slope of the line is (change in y)/(change in x) = -8/2 = -4.
So, the slope of the line is -4.
To find the slope of a line given its graph, we need to determine the change in the y-coordinate (vertical change) divided by the change in the x-coordinate (horizontal change) between two points on the line.
In this case, we have four potential slopes: -1/8, 8, 1/8, and 1.
To determine which of these is the slope of the line, we need to visually analyze the graph of the line.
If the line is a straight line, we can select any two points on the line and calculate the slope using the formula:
slope = (change in y-coordinates) / (change in x-coordinates)
If the line is not a straight line, then the concept of slope does not apply, and we cannot find the slope.
Please provide more information or a description of the line's graph to proceed with determining the slope.
