If the line that passes through #(0, -5)# and #(2, g)# has slope #1/6#, what is the value of #g#?
I hope this is useful!

To find the value of g, use the formula for slope:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Given points (0, -5) and (2, g), plug in the values:
1/6 = (g - (-5)) / (2 - 0)
Solve for g:
1/6 = (g + 5) / 2
Cross multiply:
2(g + 5) = 6
Distribute:
2g + 10 = 6
Subtract 10 from both sides:
2g = -4
Divide both sides by 2:
g = -2

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
