Question

draw a line representing the
ise\ and a line representing the
un\ of the line. state the slope of the line in simplest form. click twice to plot each segment. click a segment to delete it.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify two points on the line

Let's take two points, say (-2,0) and (6,4).

Step2: Calculate the rise

The rise is the change in y - values. $y_2 - y_1=4 - 0 = 4$.

Step3: Calculate the run

The run is the change in x - values. $x_2 - x_1=6-(-2)=8$.

Step4: Calculate the slope

The slope $m=\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}=\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2}$.

Answer:

$\frac{1}{2}$
