Step 8: Does the direction of the graphed line correspond to the sign of the calculated slope?
-Cannot determine, because the function is neither increasing nor decreasing.
-Yes, because the graph line points up and right and has a positive slope.
-No, because the graph line points down and right and has a positive slope.
-No, because the graph line points up and right and has a negative slope.
-Yes, because the graph line points down and right and has a negative slope.
