Answer 1

To determine the rise, run, and slope between the points (-5,0) and (0,4):

1. **Calculate the Rise:**
- The rise is the change in the y-coordinates:
\[
\text{Rise} = y_2 - y_1 = 4 - 0 = 4
\]

2. **Calculate the Run:**
- The run is the change in the x-coordinates:
\[
\text{Run} = x_2 - x_1 = 0 - (-5) = 0 + 5 = 5
\]

3. **Calculate the Slope:**
- The slope (m) is calculated as rise over run:
\[
\text{Slope} = \frac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}} = \frac{4}{5}
\]

So, the final answers are:
- **Rise:** 4
- **Run:** 5
- **Slope:** \(\frac{4}{5}\) (in simplest form)
