Question

 Find the Slope of this graph. Show all work

Answer 1

Slope is rise/run or difference in y/difference in x.

Find 2 points on a corner. If we start at (0,-2) and go up 6 and right 2, both positive, our slope is 6/2 = 3.

Answer 2

Slope is rise (change in y) over run (change in x), or (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Find 2 nice points, like (0,-2) and (2,4)

Then (4- (-2))/(2-0)

=6/2
