Question

question 7 of 10 what is the slope of the line shown below? a. -1 b. 3 c. -3 d. 1

Explanation:

Step1: Recall slope formula

The slope \( m \) between two points \((x_1, y_1)\) and \((x_2, y_2)\) is \( m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \).

Step2: Identify two points

From the graph, we have two points \((5, 5)\) and \((10, 10)\). Let \((x_1, y_1)=(5, 5)\) and \((x_2, y_2)=(10, 10)\).

Step3: Calculate slope

Substitute into the formula: \( m=\frac{10 - 5}{10 - 5}=\frac{5}{5} = 1 \).

Answer:

D. 1
