Find the slope of the line given its graph. (1 point) Responses 9 −9 negative 9 −4 1/2 negative 4 Start Fraction 1 over 2 End Fraction −1/9
Since we cannot see the graph of the line, we cannot determine the slope of the line.
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).
Using the given options, we can check which one represents the slope of the line.
- 9: This is not the slope.
- -9: This is not the slope.
- -4: This is not the slope.
- 1/2: This could be the slope. Let's keep it as a possibility.
- -1/9: This could also be the slope.
Therefore, the possible slopes of the line are 1/2 and -1/9.
To find the slope of a line given its graph, you need to determine the change in y-coordinates divided by the change in x-coordinates between any two points on the line.
Let's denote the coordinates of two points on the line as (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂). The slope of the line, denoted as m, can be calculated using the following formula:
m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
Now let's consider the choices provided:
- 9
- -9
- -4
- 1/2
- -1/9
Without the specific points on the graph given, we cannot accurately determine the slope. The slope can only be calculated by comparing two specific points on the line. Therefore, the information provided does not allow us to find the slope of the line.
