Slope (m):
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
1. Choosing two random ordered pairs (x,y):
• (0, 7)
,
• (2, 8)
2. Replacing these values in the slope equation:
[tex]m=\frac{8-7}{2-0}[/tex][tex]m=\frac{1}{2}=0.5[/tex]
3. Choosing two different ordered pairs:
• (1, 7.5)
,
• (3, 8.5)
4. Replacing these values in the slope equation:
[tex]m=\frac{8.5-7.5}{3-1}[/tex][tex]m=\frac{1}{2}=0.5[/tex]
Regarding linear relations, the slope will be the same with any chosen coordinates.
Answer: 0.5
