Question

youre trying to write an equation that represents this line by finding the slope and vertical intercept. you just found that the change in vertical distance is 4 and the change in horizontal distance is 1. try again to find the slope. slope = \frac{vertical distance}{horizontal distance} = \square

Explanation:

Step1: Recall slope formula

The slope is defined as $\text{slope} = \frac{\text{vertical distance}}{\text{horizontal distance}}$

Step2: Substitute given values

Substitute vertical distance = 4, horizontal distance = 1:
$\text{slope} = \frac{4}{1}$

Step3: Simplify the expression

$\frac{4}{1} = 4$

Answer:

4
