Answer:

[tex]Slope = 1[/tex]

It represents: The number of tents made in an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

X=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8

Y=6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14

Required

Determine the slope

The slope is calculated as:

[tex]Slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

Pick any two corresponding values of x and y

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (0,6)[/tex]

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (8,14)[/tex]

[tex]Slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

[tex]Slope = \frac{14 - 6}{8 - 0}[/tex]

[tex]Slope = \frac{8}{8}[/tex]

[tex]Slope = 1[/tex]

It represents: The number of tents made in an hour
