We are asked to find the slope of this graph; we are provided with two points:
[tex]\star~\mathrm{(6,0)}[/tex]
[tex]\star~\mathrm{(0,-5)}[/tex]
[tex]\triangle~\fbox{\bf{KEY:}}[/tex]
- What we need in order to find the slope are two points and the slope formula.
Here's the formula:
[tex]\star~\boxed{\mathrm{\cfrac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}}}[/tex]
Where
y2 and y1 are y-coordinates
x2 and x1 are x-coordinates
Substitute the values:
[tex]\star~\mathrm{\cfrac{-5-0}{0-6}}}[/tex]
Simplify!
[tex]\star~\mathrm{\cfrac{-5}{-6}}}[/tex]
Simplify more!
[tex]\star~\mathrm{\cfrac{5}{6}}[/tex]
Hope it helps you out! :D
