Which set of points would result in a slope of 1/4?
A. (8, 2) and (4, 1)
B. (8, 2) and (1, 4)
C. (2, 8) and (4, 1)
D. (2, 8) and (1, 4)

Respuesta :

A is the correct answer

The set of points would result in a slope of 1/4 (8, 2) and (4, 1). Then the correct option is A.

What is the slope?

The slope is the ratio of rising or falling and running. The difference between the ordinate is called rise or fall and the difference between the abscissa is called run.

Slope = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

A. (8, 2) and (4, 1). Then the slope will be

Slope = (2 – 1) / (8 – 4)

Slope = 1/4

B. (8, 2) and (1, 4). Then the slope will be

Slope = (4 – 2) / (1 – 8)

Slope = –2/7

C. (2, 8) and (4, 1). Then the slope will be

Slope = (8 – 1) / (2 – 4)

Slope = –7/2

D. (2, 8) and (1, 4). Then the slope will be

Slope = (8 – 4) / (2 – 1)

Slope = 4

Then the correct option is A.
