Question

(pls also provide an explanation for how i do this)

Find the slope of the line that passes through (5, 3) and (9, 6).

Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.

Answer 1

slope =
`(3)/(4)`

Explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m =
`(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )`

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (5, 3 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (9, 6 )

m =
`(6-3)/(9-5)` =
`(3)/(4)`
