Answer 1

To find the rise and run between the two points (0, 0) and (6, -1):

1. Rise: This is the change in the y-coordinate.

   • In this case, it goes from 0 to -1, so: \[ \text{Rise} = -1 - 0 = -1 \]

2. Run: This is the change in the x-coordinate.

   • In this case, it goes from 0 to 6, so: \[ \text{Run} = 6 - 0 = 6 \]

Question 2: Slope Calculation The slope (\(m\)) of a line is calculated as: \[ m = \frac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}} = \frac{-1}{6} \]

Therefore, the slope is \(-\frac{1}{6}\).

Summary of Answers:

• The rise from (0, 0) to (6, -1) = -1.
• The run from (0, 0) to (6, -1) = 6.
• The slope of this line = \(-\frac{1}{6}\) (or "negative 1 sixth").
