Answer:

We can use line segments QR and the points on it to find the slope.

The equation for slope is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 where x1 is the x value of the first point you chose, y2 is the y value of the second point you chose and so on.

By using this eqution we can pick any 2 points on the line. I will pick q which is (1, 3) and R which is (5, 4)

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

4 - 3 / 5 - 1

1/4 is the slope
