1. a line contains the points (−12,−60) and (60,− 42). what is the slope of the line in simplified form?! 20 points

the answer should be 0.25

formula for slope is m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

therefore m=(-42-(-60))/(60-(-12))

(-42+60)/(60+12)

18/72

simplify

1/4

further simplify

0.25 should be the final answer

answer

see attachment

explanation

the given function is

this function has y-intercept at

-4 and a slope of 2.

note that, the graph has a positive slope.

the graph that represents this function is the straight line that moves upward from left to right.

the graph touches the y-axis at -4.

the correct choice is the graph shown in the attachment.

1) 2/5

2) zero=0/1

3) zero=0/2

4) -4/5

5) undefined=3/0
