Using the given points, determine the slope. (0, 32) and (100, 212)
slope=m=y/x=rise/run=(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
Labeling the question; 0=x1, 32=y1, 100=x2, 212=y2
so just go ahead and fill the numbers in;
(32-212)/(0-100)=(-180/-100)=1.8
so therefore, the slope is at 1.8
Answer:
The slope is \(m=\frac{9}{5}\) or in decimal form \(m=1.8\)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Find the slope
\(m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\)
\(m=\frac{212-32}{100-0}\)
\(m=\frac{180}{100}\)
\(m=\frac{180/20}{100/20}\)
\(m=\frac{9}{5}\)
\(m=1.8\)
Answer: The slope is \(m=\frac{9}{5}\) or in decimal form \(m=1.8\)
