The slope of line segment AB can be found by using the slope formula:
slope AB = (change in y)/(change in x) = (5-0)/(4-3) = 5/1 = 5
The slope of line segment BE can also be found using the same formula:
slope BE = (change in y)/(change in x) = (5-0)/(4-3) = 5/1 = 5
Therefore, the answer is 5/5 = 1.
Four line segments are graphed on a coordinate plane. All four lines meet at point E.Line segment Upper A Upper E begins at left parenthesis 0 comma 0 right parenthesis and ends at left parenthesis 4 comma 5 right parenthesis. Line segment Upper B Upper E begins at left parenthesis 3 comma 0 right parenthesis and ends at left parenthesis 4 comma 5 right parenthesis. Line segment Upper C Upper E begins at left parenthesis 6 comma 0 right parenthesis and ends at left parenthesis 4 comma 5 right parenthesis. Line segment Upper D Upper E begins at left parenthesis 9 comma 0 right parenthesis and ends at left parenthesis 4 comma 5 right parenthesis.
