Calculating Slope
A graph titled position versus time has an horizontal axis time (seconds) and a vertical axis position (meters). A straight line passes from 0 seconds, 0 meters to 5 seconds, 20 meters.
Calculate the slope of the line on the graph using the formula:
m = m = v subscript 2 - v subscript 1 over x subscript 2 minus x subscript 1.
The slope of the line is
m/s.
