Question

A line passes through the points (3,5) and (2,0) what is the slope of the line?

Answer 1

5

Explanation:

slope = (difference in y)/(difference in x)

subtract the y-coordinates: 5 - 0 = 5

subtract the x-coordinates in the same order: 3 - 2 = 1

Divide the difference in y by the difference in x.

slope = 5/1 = 5
