What is the slope? X 0,1,2,3 y -5,-1,3,7

Sagot :

[tex]\begin{array}{|cc|ll} \cline{1-2} x&y\\ \cline{1-2} 0&-5\\ 1&-1\\ 2&3\\ 3&7\\ \cline{1-2} \end{array} \begin{array}{llll}\\[-0.5em] \leftarrow \textit{let's use this point}\\\\\\ \leftarrow \textit{and this point} \end{array}\qquad \qquad (\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{7})[/tex]

[tex]\stackrel{slope}{m}\implies\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{\stackrel{y_2}{7}-\stackrel{y1}{(-5)}}}{\underset{run}{\underset{x_2}{3}-\underset{x_1}{0}}}\implies \cfrac{7+5}{3}\implies \cfrac{12}{3}\implies 4[/tex]
