Question

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

Explanation:

Step1: Identify two line points

Choose points $(0, -2)$ and $(10, 0)$ on the line.

Step2: Calculate rise (vertical change)

Rise = $y_2 - y_1 = 0 - (-2) = 2$

Step3: Calculate run (horizontal change)

Run = $x_2 - x_1 = 10 - 0 = 10$

Step4: Compute slope as rise/run

Slope = $\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} = \frac{2}{10} = \frac{1}{5}$

Answer:

The slope of the line is $\frac{1}{5}$.
(For the rise/run lines: Plot a vertical segment from $(0, -2)$ to $(0, 0)$ for rise, and a horizontal segment from $(0, 0)$ to $(10, 0)$ for run, or any equivalent pair of vertical/horizontal segments between two points on the line.)
