Question

what is the slope of the line

Answer 1

Answer:

1.5 OR 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope (m) = ΔY/ΔX= 3/2=1.5

θ = arctan(ΔY/Δx)= 56.30993247402°

ΔX = 3 – 1 = 2

ΔY = 0 – -3 = 3

Distance (d) = √ΔX2 + ΔY2 = √13 = 3.605551275464

Equation of the line:

y = 1.5x – 4.5

or

y=3/2x-9/2

Thus, 3/2

Answer 2

Answer:

• m = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the coordinates of two points on the graph:

• (1, -3), (3, 0)

Find the slope using slope formula:

• m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
• m = (0 - (-3))/(3 - 1) = 3/2 = 1.5
