Answer:
[tex] \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the gradient of the graph, we use the formula,
[tex]gradient \: (m) = \frac{(y2 - y1)}{(x2 - x1)} [/tex]
From the graph, we obtain values for x and y
x1 = 4, x2 = 8
y1 = 2, y2 = 3
Substitute the values into our formula.
[tex]m \: = \frac{(3 - 2)}{(8 - 4)} \\ = \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
Therefore, the gradient, m, =
[tex] \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
Note:-
- Use the above formula when determining the gradient of the graph.
- Obtain the values of x and y then subtract [∆y] and [∆x].
- Divide the two
