What is the gradient of the line below?
Gradient =

Answer

The gradient (slope) of a line is calculated as the change in y divided by the change in x (rise over run). From the graph, the line passes through the points (-2, 6) and (2, -3).

  1. Change in y (rise) = -3 - 6 = -9
  2. Change in x (run) = 2 - (-2) = 4
  3. Gradient = rise/run = -9/4

Gradient = -9/4
