Question

The points ​(10​,16​) and ​(30​,48​) form a proportional relationship. Find the slope of the line through the points. Then use the slope to graph the line.

Answer 1

1.6

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

x1=10

y1=16

x2=30

y2=48

Required

The slope of the given points

Step two:

The expression for the slope is

S= change in y/change in x

S= y2-y1/x2-x1

S= 48-16/30-10

S=32/20

S=1.6

Hence the slope is 1.6
