Question

Using the given points, determine the slope. (0, 32) and (100, 212) slope = -9/5 slope = -5/9 slope = 5/9 slope = 9/5

Answer 1

The slope is 1.8, which is equal to 9/5.

Answer 2

Answer:
`(9)/(5)`

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the slope of a line is given by :-

`\text{Slope}=\frac{\text{Change in y coordinates}}{\text{Change in x coordinates}}`

The given points : -(0, 32) and (100, 212)

Then the slope of the line is given by :-

`\text{Slope}=(212-32)/(100-0)\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Slope}=(180)/(100)=(9)/(5)`

Hence, the slope of the line passing through the given points :
`(9)/(5)`
