Questions: State the run, rise, and slope of the line shown.
Transcript text: State the run, rise, and slope of the line shown.
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify the Run
The run is the horizontal change between two points on the line. In this case, the run is given as -2.
Step 2: Identify the Rise
The rise is the vertical change between two points on the line. In this case, the rise is given as -13.
Step 3: Calculate the Slope
The slope of a line is calculated as the rise divided by the run. Using the given values:
\[ \text{slope} = \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} = \frac{-13}{-2} = \frac{13}{2} = 6.5 \]
