Slope simply put is the "rise over run" of an equation.

So, to find the "rise" you must first find the change in the y values:

212 - 32 = 180

Now for the "run" we do the same thing with the x values:

100 - 0 = 100

So, following the "rise over run" scenario we end up with [tex] \frac{180}{100} [/tex] which when simplified ends up being [tex] \frac{9}{5} [/tex]

Answer:

[tex]m=\frac{9}{5}[/tex] or in decimal form [tex]m=1.8\\[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Find the slope

[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{212-32}{100-0}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{180}{100}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{180/20}{100/20}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{9}{5}[/tex]

[tex]m=1.8\\[/tex]

Answer:   [tex]m=\frac{9}{5}[/tex] or in decimal form [tex]m=1.8\\[/tex]
