Draw a line representing the “rise” and a line representing the “run” of the line. State the slope of the line in simplest form.
Solution:
To find the slope of the line, identify two points on the line. For example, the points (0, -5) and (5, 5) are on the line.
Calculate the rise and run between these two points:
The slope (m) is the ratio of rise to run:
Slope (m) = Rise / Run = 10 / 5 = 2
