To determine the rise, run, and slope of a line on a graph, you typically follow these steps:

  1. Rise: This is the vertical change between two points on the line. It can be calculated as the difference in the y-coordinates of the two points.

  2. Run: This is the horizontal change between the same two points on the line. It is the difference in the x-coordinates of the two points.

  3. Slope: The slope (m) of a line is calculated using the formula: \[ m = \frac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}} \]

To fill in the values:

  • If you have two points on the line, say (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), then:

    • Rise = y₂ - y₁
    • Run = x₂ - x₁
  • Finally, substitute these values into the slope formula to find:

    • Slope = \(\frac{y₂ - y₁}{x₂ - x₁}\)

Please provide the specific points or a description of the graph so I can help you calculate these values accurately. Without that information, I cannot provide the specific numerical answers.
