Question

Slope of the line joining (8,1)(24,9)

Answer 1

Hello :D

Answer:

`\boxed{(1)/(2)}`

Explanation:

Slope formula:

↓

`(Y_2-Y_1)/(X_2-X_1)=(RISE)/(RUN)`

`Y_2=9,\\Y_1=1\\X_2=24\\X_1=8\\`

`(9-1)/(24-8)=(8)/(16)`

`(8/ 2)/(16/ 2)=(4)/(8)`

`(4/ 4)/(8/4)=(1)/(2)`

`\boxed{(1)/(2)}`, which is our answer.

Hope this helps you!

Have a wonderful day! :D
