Find the gradient of the line segment between the points (-4,4) and (0,12).

Sagot :

gradient = 12-4 ÷0-(-4)=8÷4=2

Answer:

gradient = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the gradient m using the gradient formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 12)

m = [tex]\frac{12-4}{0+4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{4}[/tex] = 2
