Question

draw a line representing the
ise\ and a line representing the
un\ of the line. state the simplest form. click twice to plot each segment. click a segment to delete it.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify two points on the line

Let's take two points, say (-8, 5) and (4, -1).

Step2: Calculate the rise

Rise is the change in y - values. So, rise=$y_2 - y_1=-1 - 5=-6$.

Step3: Calculate the run

Run is the change in x - values. So, run=$x_2 - x_1=4-(-8)=12$.

Step4: Simplify the ratio of rise to run

The ratio of rise to run is $\frac{-6}{12}=-\frac{1}{2}$. To draw the rise, from a point on the line, move 6 units down (since rise is - 6). To draw the run, from the end - point of the rise, move 12 units to the right.

Answer:

Rise: - 6, Run: 12, Simplified ratio of rise to run: $-\frac{1}{2}$
