Question 47612: Please help!
If u=x-2 is an equation representing a line on a graph, which direction is the line moving, and what is the slope?
a. up and to the left, m=2
b. up and to the right, m=1
c. upand to the left, m=1
Thank you!

You can put this solution on YOUR website! usually a graph has the x axis for the horizontal line and y for the verticle line so if your u=y then the line for y=x-2 produces the following points:
(2,0), (3,1),(4,2),(5,3),6,4) etc. thus the slope is (1-0)/(3-2) or 1/1 or 1
ans c).
