X=number of hours
Y=number of tents made

X=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8
Y=6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14

What is the slope? What does it represent?

Sagot :

Given:

X=number of hours

Y=number of tents made

Table of value.

To find:

The slope and its interpretation.

Solution:

Consider any two points from the table, i.e., (0,6) and (1,7).

The slope is

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{7-6}{1-0}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{1}{1}[/tex]

[tex]m=1[/tex]

Therefore, the slope is 1 and it represent that the number of tents made are increasing by 1 units in each hour.
