Find the slope of the line represented by the table of values.
A) 1/2
B) 1
C) 2
D) 4

Answer:
-0.5, or - 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Find x intercept
(0, 1.5)
Find y intercept
(-3,0)
Do rise over run (y over x)
0, 1.5
---------
-3, 0
-1.5, over 3
slope=-0.5 or - 1/2
Answer: A) [tex]\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{2}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the slope of a function is given by :-
[tex]\text{Slope}=\dfrac{\text{Change in y values}}{\text{Change in x values}}[/tex]
Fro the given table, from x = 1 and x= 3 , we have
Change in x values=3-1=2
Change in y values=3-2=1
[tex]\text{Slope}=\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{2}}[/tex]
Hence, the slope of the line represented by the table of values.= [tex]\dfrac{\text{1}}{\text{2}}[/tex]
