Question

ms. joseph is dropping marbles into a cylinder one at a time. she records the volume of whats in the cylinder after each marble is dropped in. what is the slope of this line? slope:

Explanation:

Step1: Recall slope formula

Slope $m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Step2: Select two points

Use $(x_1,y_1)=(0,10)$ and $(x_2,y_2)=(3,16)$

Step3: Calculate slope

$m = \frac{16 - 10}{3 - 0} = \frac{6}{3} = 2$

Answer:
