To determine the rise, run, and slope of a line on a graph, follow these steps:
-
Rise: This refers to the change in the y-coordinate (vertical change) as you move along the line. Measure how much the line goes up or down between two points.
-
Run: This refers to the change in the x-coordinate (horizontal change) as you move along the line. Measure how much the line goes left or right between the same two points.
-
Slope (m): The slope is calculated using the formula \( m = \frac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}} \).
You'll need to select two points from the graph to determine the rise and run. For example, if you choose the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), then the rise would be \( y2 - y1 \) and the run would be \( x2 - x1 \).
Once you have the rise and run, substitute those values into the slope formula to get \( m \).
If you have specific points from the graph you can provide, I can help you calculate the specific rise, run, and slope. Otherwise, the process above will guide you in making those calculations.
