Answer:

1.4/0 or (4,1.5) is 1.4 units down from (4,2.9)

Explanation:

Hey!

Slope gives us the distance between two points. So, the slope of those two points is your answer.

To find the slope use this equation:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Using your points, (4,1.5) is (x1,y1) and (4,2.9) is (x2,y2)

so,
(2.9 - 1.5)/(4-4)

We get:
(1.4)/(0)

I hope that helps! :)
