Question

Based on the table of values below, find the slope between points where x = 3 and where x = 7.

x y
3 1
4 6
7 9

Answers
−4

1/4

1

2

Answer 1

The answer would be D. 2

Answer 2

d) 2

Explanation:

let's take the points (3, 1) and (7, 9)

Slope formula (m) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Here x1 = 3, y1 = 1 , x2 = 7 and y2 = 9

Now plug in these values in the formula, we get

slope (m) = (9 -1) / (7 -3)

= 8/4

Slope = 2

Answer: d) 2
