Question 9 • Modern Math KHS

What does it mean to the rise over run when the slope is an integer?

Answer
A
the rise number is one
B
the run number is always negative
C
the run part of the slope is going to be one
D
there will be no slope

Explanation

A slope is rise divided by run. If the slope is an integer, it can be written as that integer over 1, so the run is 1 in the simplified rise-over-run fraction. Therefore, the correct choice is “the run part of the slope is going to be one.”
