Question

question 7 of 10
the change in the x - coordinates of any two points the

a. angle
b. run
c. slope
d. rise

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In the context of the slope - formula $m=\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$, the change in $x$ - coordinates ($x_2 - x_1$) between two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is called the run. The change in $y$ - coordinates ($y_2 - y_1$) is called the rise. Angle is related to the slope but not the change in $x$ - coordinates directly. Slope is the ratio of rise to run.

Answer:

B. run
