Answers

1. Answer :

The above line is a falling line. So, its slope will be a negative value.

Measure the rise and run.

For the above line,

rise = -7

run = 9

Then,

slope = ʳⁱˢᵉ⁄ᵣᵤₙ

= -⁷⁄₉

2. Answer :

The above line is a rising line. So, its slope will be a positive value.

Measure the rise and run.

For the above line,

rise = 4

run = 6

Then,

slope = ʳⁱˢᵉ⁄ᵣᵤₙ

= ⁴⁄₆

= ⅔

3. Answer :

The above line is a falling line. So, its slope will be a negative value.

Measure the rise and run.

For the above line,

rise = -6

run = 4

Then,

slope = ʳⁱˢᵉ⁄ᵣᵤₙ

= -⁶⁄₄

= -³⁄₂

4. Answer :

The above line is a falling line. So, its slope will be a negative value.

Measure the rise and run.

For the above line,

rise = -5

run = 1

Then,

slope = ʳⁱˢᵉ⁄ᵣᵤₙ

= -⁵⁄₁

= -5

5. Answer :

The above line is a vertical line.

Measure the rise and run.

For the above line,

rise = 3

run = 0

Then,

slope = ʳⁱˢᵉ⁄ᵣᵤₙ

= ³⁄₀

= Undefined

Note :

The slope of a vertical line is always undefined.

6. Answer :

The above line is a rising line. So, its slope will be a positive value.

Measure the rise and run.

For the above line,

rise = 6

run = 2

Then,

slope = ʳⁱˢᵉ⁄ᵣᵤₙ

= ⁶⁄₂

= 3

7. Answer :

The above line is a rising line. So, its slope will be a positive value.

Measure the rise and run.

For the above line,

rise = 2

run = 5

Then,

slope = ʳⁱˢᵉ⁄ᵣᵤₙ

= ⅖

8. Answer :

The above line is an horizontal line.

Measure the rise and run.

For the above line,

rise = 0

run = 4

Then,

slope = ʳⁱˢᵉ⁄ᵣᵤₙ

= ⁰⁄₄

= 0

Note :

The slope of an horizontal line is always zero.
