Question

Find the Slope of a line That contains the points (5, 6), (1,4).​

Answer 1

[tex] \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = \frac{4 - 6}{1 - 5} = - 2 \div - 4 = 1/2

Answer 2

1/2

Explanation:

Use the slope formula:

`slope = m = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1)`

`slope = m = (6 - 4)/(5 - 1)`

`slope = m = (2)/(4)`

`slope = m = (1)/(2)`
